Day 3: Ride the Bearwallow Trail System again (Its pretty big)
Day 4: Travel to a small location outside of Fayetteville and hike the Long Point Trail (Beautiful view of the new river gorge bridge)
Day 5: Travel to Summersville lake for kayaking, this lake is very clean and has beautiful features to explore.
Check out my other videos to see how this rail buggy was built. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I sometimes go exploring in my dune buggy with my 9 1/2ft Kayak on the roof. Gives me some shade and extra storage space. Love what you have done with the buggy.
I would love to get a VW sandrail and load my 16ft sea kayak on the roof.
I thought I was the only one who would have done something like this.
Keep this series going, it's been awesome to watch.
19:30 такую мойку багги, я еще никогда не видел😅
👍
Sweet trip! I’ve been a buggy fan for a long time! The original sxs.
Thank you for the trail footage!! Makes me want to go ride
Awesome times 😎 I approve of the buggy now
hey man, like your determination.....
Looks like a ton of fun! Well earned!
Cool video. Looks like you found a off road vehicle friendly town. No license plate required. 👍👍👍you also have a cool girl there who seems like shes actually in to it. Your lucky. Thx for posting.
She is the best! Thanks for the comment
I really enjoy watching your videos. It’s crazy to see how fast you solve problems. Cheers from club loose.
Thanks 👍
Love the railbuggy content would like to see more
"Out of control"? No way my friend. After about 4 years of 4x4ing ...shit happens on the trails we all have to deal with. Part of the fun. You did well. My 70' rail project has now kicked into gear! And I thank you. Wish there was a group of us rail guys, like my 4x4 buddies.
Bought a 67 vw sand rail buggy today, watched all your videos about the build (3:25 AM here lol) love your project and your attitude, like you drove it with your girl!! Planning to do the same!!
Awesome to hear. Hope you have fun fixing yours up and getting it out on the trails. If you need any help with it let me know!
This was a great series! I watched the whole thing. There were some major fabrication skills on display in this project. You gave me ideas on what you can do with a play buggy I didn't have before. As regards that smoking trailer tire: Always carry spares on the roof and, that's what that turning brake is for - to lock up the spinning wheel so the other one gets traction.
....
Love the videos, very informative. To bad you had bad weather on your trip. Happy motoring.
thats the BEST weather for sandrailing
Awesome!
Very cool trail. I've got a buggy in California. Would be great to go here sometime. Maybe when it's not quite so wet. LOL.
Mine has a 1641 dp with a Engle 110 cam. Pertronics 009. 1.2 ratio rockers. I rev the poop out of it. Been wanting to go on that trip for a while. I’m subbed!
Awsome video, reminds me of some of our buggy trips 🤣
I am working my way to a weenie sticker
Back in the day guys would put front on back and ride with 3 wheels, the vw torsion front allows you to run 3 tires if you need to get out of woods. Its easy to carry tubes and irons too.
Wow that trailer tire screwed you on that hill… I feel like with both knobbies, you would have been right up that.
Beats the hell out of a 30K Razor need a OH SHIT handle for passenger though.
Those trails look sick! We should take a trip with the 4bies sometime.
100% need to get the 2002 out there. looks like a blast
Its allowed too! That would be cool
Subbed! Good video!
ive learnt not to use the activator when ca gluing myself back together
Need a set of tractor tread paddle tires
Buggy's badass a friend of mine has one dam near identical
I’ve heard about these trails, it’s good to get to see them in your video.
Your videos are very well edited, but still youtube algorithm still doesn’t bestow you with subscribers.
gloves?? loved the super glue!
Carry some ether so you can pop those beads back in the easy way.
I've seen a few videos of the Hatfield McCoy system. In general, it looks like great place to ride! Looks like you had your fair share of mud. Awesome first trip after the build!
2 questions about future plans:
Going to carry a spare?
Going to sleeve those tie rods?
Wish I lived closer to ride those areas too!
You are reading my mind. Certainly sleeving the tierods, and maybe making the steering ratio more exciting too. Big tire upgrades in the future. Thanks for watching!
You need a vice mounted on the trailer or bumper
Good idea, the truck needs one
How's that finger?just dump beer on it,it don't hurt unless bone hangs out, hahaha
Tread lightly
Hey bud what tires are those?
How tall are those tires? Also do you know your wheel base?
They are 28”. Wheelbase is about 95”
I see gloves in the future
Hey what yr is ur front suspension, I have the same one but don't know the yr ??
Mine is “link pin” which I believe was used on 65 and older beetles. Newer than that looks similar but uses balljoints and 4 lug hubs
Had no idea you could take rails there. What about a Baja bug?
Absolutely! Theres 3 trail systems there that allow "full size" things where your baja would be perfect
It is difficult when you go alone, get some friends who have a buggy so that you do not go alone
What size tires are you running? Sorry
They are 28" UTV tires on a 15" wheel
Hi i had some questions about tuning/ getting a tune done. is there somewhere that i can dm you?
Hi Brandon. I’m not taking any new customers at this time but if you have any questions feel free to ask.
What tires are you running
They are 28" on a 15" wheel. They were stock tires off a honda talon if I remember right. Im in the process of moving to 14" SXS wheels and using 30x10x14" tires
Do a burnout!
