Thumbs up A build to remember

I am starting with a 1980 ezgo marathon that is a piece of crap. I picked up a newer txt body today that is gonna fit very well with a little fabrication. I came across a deal for a 100 dollars I ended up with a newer club car rear end. I junked the coil springs and orderd heavy duty rear leaf springs. I have the preadator engine waiting to be put in. I will upload pictures as i go along with this build if i can figure out how to do it. I have a list of stuff i need to get order from vegas carts.This should be a fun build that i hope to have done in the next 6 months as i am on a limited funds the wife said. If you guys have any questions please feel free to ask.

Sorry I haven't been on here in a while. The build is coming along very nice I should be completed with the build in a couple of weeks as I have to have it done by sept. 1 for a camping trip that we go on for 10 days. I decided when I paint it I have holigraphic metal flake to go in the clear coat. I also got stuff to go in the gas that will make the exhaust smell like cotton candy should be a crowd pleaser. The only thing that will not be done is the custom seats and rims and tires. That will have to wait till later this year. I will get some pictures uploaded next week as the frame is being painted right now. Thanks for looking

It is an additive you put in the gas to make the exhaust smell. Where I live we use it in the race cars . There is a couple other smells as well.

That is very interesting, I'd never heard of such a thing...

I have an 89 Marathon that I wanted to put a TXT body on. What type of modifications did you have to do?
