Re: Dune Buggy Thread
that could work, we could use pretty much any front end, but which would be the lightest, i still say we use a vw front end, its alot simpler and less complex

Re: Dune Buggy Thread
it could be completely assembled for under $2000.00 most likely we can do it for 1500.00 It we just get 5 people thats just a 300.00 dollar investment and we wouldn't even need all the money up front as this would be a weekend proect that would take a minimum of 5-6 weeks
