I second the request for the list of items in your "kit" Teamhog. Would be most appreciative for the info to jumpstart putting together my "kit".
Here's a couple of photos of the Joyner being picked up at auction.
Thanks guys.

Congrats. That white is sharp. The weak points on these buggies are the batteries (even though I'm the only one in my group that hasn't had a problem) and the tires (cheap 2-ply). If you have problems with fuel starvation, check your fuel line and make sure it's running at a consistent "downhill". If it dies after holding it open at top end for a while you'll probably have to re-jet or you may be able to adjust the carb suitably. I'm in Kansas at lower altitude and these things are pretty sensitive to jetting. That's a good buy at that price!

Chris, thanks allot for the list!!! Lot of stuff on that list I hadn't thought of.
What else do I need to do to prep the Buggy before riding it a good bit? I'll change the fluids and gas 'er up. I'll look around for any obviously loose nuts, bolts, etc and tighten.
Any specific recommendations about what needs loctiting? What else do I need to do to prep? Grease any fittings? Any input would be appreciated gents.
Thanks again - I'm looking forward to going to get pick her up in Kerrville.
Thanks,
Treytexag
