May '02 Buggy of The Month entry #2:

Paul Maher

I took one ride in a buggy with a 1200 single port and just had to build one. So the search was on after looking at a hand full of possible candidates I was told of this old dune buggy in a barn behind a car dealer. It had been sitting for over 10 years and was used as a buggy for beating in the woods of the East Coast. This thing was as Ruff as they get but I loved the lines of the body. The chassis is a "62" the body is a Fiberfab "Clodhopper" picked it up for $400. I had it flat bedded to my house and plopped in the driveway. Boy o Boy! was my girl friend happy. "Ok not realy" So the project began stripped it to the tunnel and worked my way out. Completed the project in 10 months. Thanks to all my friends" and a large stack of dead presidents. $$$$
