Gold buggy ideas

#1

Post by Windbag »

I have the chance of a used working a golf buggy.
Tbh, can't see who buys a used on anyhow.?

Real question, what can I upcycle it into?

The only idea I have, is a mobile battery store?

Ideas anyone?

I guess it depends on price/battery condition & size. No idea why but my first thought was mobile chicken Coop with solar panel, lights, auto water, auto feed and electric door flap.

I'll get my coat...

My first idea, at ~£50/g would be to melt it down and sell. :shock:

Thanks guys. Sounds like it might be more trouble than it's worth.
