Nice buggy for what it was designed to do. Would not be much good outside of the Florida swamps because it is topheavy.

Mark, interesting toy, How did it run before the ignition went out? I would guess it just needs a coil since this is a common problem with 151's. Fuel pump could be aftermarket electric or A2 which are cheap either way.

it ran like a charm i bought a new coil and points and it did not fix the problem


this little buggy will go places that you would never dream it could i used to have 40 in tractor tires but i do not think it had enough power so i swithed to 35 mud tires and it was a great choice


i need to sell this buggy becuase i just built a new one from a old toyota pick up
