RISKY'S BAJA PROJECT 
 
 
well it's been just over a week and i have work under way 
now i know it's no where nere as good as wes's or other baja but i like it 
i wanted a buggy for offroading and that i could use in the cold and rain and did not want to spend to much so this is what i got 
 
first job was to remove all the crap from the inside dirt ,paint,bolt's etc 
 
then the baja kit was only just hanging on and needs a little work so it came off 
 
next job was so rust repair so off with the pan and a clean and paint as well 
 
it had a kombi motor in it before i got it and was efi  
as it will be only used for a buggy i have taken the wiring out and going to do basic for the buggy 
 
last job to day was get the breaks going  
after 500ml of new break fluid and a lot of brown crap out the other end seams to be ok 
 
and thats what i have been up 2   
and loving it 
i wanted to but a 2" lift kit on but $$$ are low  
have got a few pic's and will be adding more as i go to keep track of what i have done

Good score....Might have been easier to remove the seats first.....I took everything out the the car first , like seats gearshifter etc before we
removed the body, then the two of us just lifted the body off.
