Not mine, but I'm close. I could check them out for someone. They look heavily modded and very cool.

What exactly are those? Modified FL250s? or FL350s? The Engine on 1 of them looks like an FL350 top end and an FL250 bottom end?

Yup, then it became mine...and I sold it LOL. Wow, these cars are really dinky, probably a lot to handle as far as Engine maintainance and tuning. Glad I got rid of it now that I look back.

Are these a lot to maintain and I did not think there were any places to ride them any more as most Off road parks don't allow them and I heard the tracks banned them. What's up with that? Does anybody race these anymore?

I have something like these. Mines little older I think. I am thinking mine is the early versions of these cars. Just guessing though.

Mine has the cammex Engine on an fl250 bottom end.

The two have been sold and here's the scoop. The Panther was built and raced by Ron Griffin. He owned Pro-ATV and raced this in the 1984 Score Offroad world championships. Needless to say, his company built some awesome buggies and this was his personal car. It originally had a 500, but that motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) went the way of all good race motors. The other buggy is a Briggsbuilt with a 350. I am trying to find out who raced this before. If anyone knows, please get in touch with me. Oh and I am the new owner and will be putting these back to race ready condition. Any information on the best places to get parts for these buggies would be great.

Here's a pic of the Briggsbuilt buggy. It runs real nice. I have just started digging in to see what all it needs to make it cherry again. I think I need to redo the shocks. Any thought on rebuilding a works shock or where to get the bigred tires.

The guy I bought it from was running the oil at a 20 -1 mix. I am wondering if that's really a good mix. Any idea what color blue they used when painting as I would like to do some paiting on the frame.
