Check this bitchin' buggy out , made from you guessed it ALUMINUM! All I need now is some bigfoots,make a seat,fab cooler rack for backside(removable no doubt),splash gaurd,gps holder,foot pegs ,powder coating , roll bar pads for siderailsand backrest. And you got a bitchin' buggy!

Nice looking buggy!!

I think you might have yourself a nice little business there!

kinda looks like you know something about welding - maybe you should rename yourself like godofwelding or something

Looks like a kickass ride....If'n you're ever in production to sell.

1 question & maybe this is just plain dumb but I haven't tried the buggy thing yet...but...when I see pics of buggying it seems like you're always riding with the back position kinda tweaked towrds the kite. If the seats had a minor amount of swivel to them would that be of any benefit? Maybe even like 10-15%. You can me now

Since you steer with your feet on a buggy, I wouldnt think a swiveling seat is a good Idea....might be kind of hard to steer with your knees whacking back and forth, and to and fro!

I have a homemade front fork on my buggy as the peter lynn fork is chintzy and snapped on me....my fork looks almost identical to yours, and was a major improvement on my buggy!

It looks like you might have a length Problem on the front fork. I roll the Bigfoots too and I just measured the circumfrence at 21 inches across.....How long is that fork of yours?

My welder dude put on some foot pegs that flared up and out to keep my feet from sliding off....another improvement.
Dude, I want a custom buggy with a backrest and a beer holder.....We should try to break the word distance record sometime....if my memory serves me correctly, some dude did over three hundred miles in a day.....No problem with a custom BuggyXcross model by Weldngod!

I wonder if there is some way to make a steerable buggy/sled thing for snow.

Already been done ,they make skis you put in place of wheels! They even make pontoons so you can buggy across the lake. Triple threat, a Bigfoot will fit with 1" to spare.And if for some reason it don't,it's metal. I'M THE WELDNGOD!!! It will do as i say.

So whats it gonna take to make these to sell to us jealous untalented kiters?

alot of cash. The material is high dollar stuff ,the average joe can't afford.By the time you add tires,welding costs(argon,filler wire ,electricity or gasoline,manhours) say around $2000-2500 range. But hey ,I never said I was a cheap date. I was thinking about live suspension for a mod. If you could afford it ,contact http://www.hotworxinc.com that's the family business that I work for in addition to a regular job in the yards.Hell if I'm not welding, kiting ,b.s.'n here,I'm asleep. For the right price I will build you anything,thats what I do. peace

ready been done ,they make skis you put in place of wheels! They even make pontoons so you can buggy across the lake.

I had to see for myself so I went to youtube and this is what I found...

I need one of these things for the shark infested waters south of San Fransisco! Those waters freak me out!
