IMPI did the Buggy's pan a few years ago - the best craftmanship I've seen in my life! It took 'us' a Friday evening and Saturday morning, with the MIG welder, and I can recommend him to anyone :wink:

No problem
I just need to get the pan in Orkney which is about 250 km from Pretoria
The pan I did for pine was the third where we discarded the floors totally and built an out rigger pan with ally floors specifically for the buggies I have done four now and they work great. It is probably overkill for the speedster though and a normal pan will do just fine.

ok, I have my in laws that stay in Klerksdorp and all I have to do is to organise getting the pan to him first and then from them to you. I'm in no rush for this and am actually trying to get hold of a body before I get the pan done, but I'm assured by everyone that I've spoken to that the dimentions are the same for the speedster and the beach buggies.

I want to pick your brain sometime anyway, myself and pine want to pop through sometime.

Thanks
