It's definitely hot.  I set down the mount bracket on a bucket after welding it and it kinda made it a tunnel not a bucket.  O well. I guess I owe my dad a bucket from lowes.

Good to know the mj has flux core welds.  I still need more practice before I make any major changes to the buggy.

Got the new/old fuel cell mounted in the buggy.  Did not fit where the original one did so I had to improvise.  It's sold but temporary till I have time and funds to buy some tubing so I can re-do a lot of the rear 1/2 of the cage.  But that's a winter project.  Just need to run the fuel line from the pump to the rail, cross my fingers and turn the key.

well after a very stressful weekend waiting for parts, the buggy lives again.  finished the fuel line last night and fired it up.  no leaks, so we are good.  was hoping to have time to play with the steering but that will have to be another time....
