Baja
I've seen this Baja in the flesh. And it's looking really good. Heaps of tough bits.
It's getting close to being on the road now, I can't wait to see it in action.

ok ok ok ....
Yes it is going on the road and will be fully street legal and engineered.
It has the following to name a little:
- Kombi transmission
- 4 wheel disc brakes
- twin rear shocks and long travel suspension
- custom 6 pt cage
- 2L type 4, with upright kit
- 16" offroad rims and tyres
- custom bucket seats
- custom bar work
- Cheetah Baja Kit
- Hundreds of hours of work.
It is all legal and there is no issues with internal cages and shock mounts. They actually have covers and caps but these are not fitted in the
photos.

Tyres are the new BFG mud pattern on my spare set of 16 x 8 and 16 x 6 custom offset rims.
Shocks are mounted onto of the trailing arms as per offroad race cars.
Front end is king and link, modified towers and bump stops, gussetted assemblies with sleeved oversized axles, machined beetle discs with soon to be
holden callipers and tie rod ends. Pitman arm has beam splayed and reamed to take holden tie rods, box is early big nut with soon to have internal
mods for strength.
Over all it is a pretty tough Baja and it will be good to watch it break as it tries to follow the buggies around :P

hey
the list is just way tooo long for me to remember
as this car started as being a cheap QUICK baja conversion
it just grew and now has become more money hungry than the ex missis
but it should be fun to drive soon

maybe more money hungry but at the end of the day you can push it into my damn and walk away and not have to worry about the cops .... now that is a
cool setup.....
Baja should be getting its new loom in the next week or so then it will start ,stop and indicate......
Now I just need to get my new roof...... then we will see some progress.....
