After 2+ years away from wheeling, and building my business I decided it was time to do something about it. I had bought a Salvaged-Rebuilt 2005 GTO to play with but decided it wasn't my thing, so I parted it out and kept the low mileage LS2 to build a buggy around. A local Ga builder is making it into a roller. I`m going to do the wiring, plumbing, tear down, powdercoat and rebuild. Looking forward to get back into the wheeling game. :smoke: And yes, I gave in and got the GF pink harnesses as a Christmas gift.

Awesome parts list! Nice welds on the Artec trusses. Who is the GA builder? Just curious. :D
 
Subscribed... And we're gonna need to see more pics of the seat model...
 
Well then. :bounce:

What rig did you have back then?

A black XJ on 44/9 and 37ssrs. Think that was the same trip a buddy of mine backflipped down a hill and smashed his XJ really bad and I ended up breaking a 9 shaft so I rode with you and somehow we flopped it in a mud hole near camp.

It would look better with a motor in it.
 
Looks good! It'll be way more comfortable with seats in it. :flipoff2:
