Lots of learning to do on this one! It needs new seat, new tires all the way around and probably the shocks refreshers up!
And that's just looking at it! I still haven't got it home from Arizona yet where and then I will tear into it and check all my bearings and seals Etc


Congrats on the new buggy. I still have your old seat from the EEE, I pulled it out of my daughters Ody because I picked up a nice Pilot seat. I'll make you the same deal. :-)

I found these knockoffs...

I'll try them for now!
I had a new pair, saved for a few years for just such a purpose... Then sold them to a friend in need! Now I cand find any good deals on them? Lol

Ouch!! I think 220 a piece shipped is more than fair if they are comfortable & fit the buggy well.

There's a few guys that race here local to me that are going to help me out! Today I worked on the free trailer that came with it! New jack for it, then some wood replacement is next!
Waiting on seats... Then I'll get those installed and get the roll cage lifted... I'm taller than the previous owner

I post regularly on that Facebook! But I know how yall don't go there! I bought a tubing bender, added some bracing and then built the aluminum (new pieces) tins! I also built a roof that opens up so I can climb in and out! Installed a bigger fan, tried to paint it, but got half way done and decided to powder coat eventually! I probably have one hour total driving... Too many hours working on her!
