I pulled the blaze off of the trailer after BB last year, and its been sitting ever since. I have just been collecting parts for the big build. Im gonna run the blaze as is for now. Im getting close to assembly though. Just not this time around.

 

[miniwally]

Since the buggy was pulled into the shop in April after being cartwheeled a few times it hasn't been touched.

Planning to look at it some tonight, I know that at a minimum it needs a few cracks welded up. Maybe a new roof?
Just a few minor things

Right now I am installing new power steering pump and putting in radiator that was just gone thru. I will throw a new serp belt on at the same time. Found some big mud clumps from when I did a mud run like 3 years ago on father's day.
