Rule for the road

Postby GregR » 17 Thu May, 2007 5:02 pm

You only need 2 tools when buggying.
WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40.
If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

That will work because they make duct tape in many different colors to match your buggy

Does anyone know where I can get yellow baling wire to go with the yellow duct tape? I like things color coordinated. :lol:

If you have a custom cup holder for your beer in a car that has the muffler held on by bailing wire.....you might be a red neck. (Jeff Foxworthy) :lol:

In my best STEVE Martin voice...

Fire extinguisher, 10mm, 13mm, 17mm, and a vise grip is all I need.

and a extra set of points....is all I need

and a fuel filter...is all I need..

and a a crescent wrench too...is all i need..

and this AAA card is all I need....


Wait, sorry I got caught up in a "the Jerk" movie moment..... :lol: :lol:


Circa 1979....
Well I'm gonna to go then. And I don't need any of this. I don't need this stuff, and I don't need you. I don't need anything except this.

Navin R. Johnson: And that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this ashtray. And this paddle game, the ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need. And this remote control. The ashtray, the paddle game, and the remote control, and that's all I need. And these matches. The ashtray, and these matches, and the remote control and the paddle ball. And this lamp. The ashtray, this paddle game and the remote control and the lamp and that's all I need. And that's all I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one - I need this. The paddle game, and the chair, and the remote control, and the matches, for sure. And this. And that's all I need. The ashtray, the remote control, the paddle game, this magazine and the chair.

Navin R. Johnson: And I don't need one other thing, except my dog.

One thing at a time.....kids first, then the buggy. I did the other way 'round and didn't work too good. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Plus, this way I have a few years to sit back and read and see you guys perfect the art of buggy building.
