Hello,
A big thanks to those who helped me get an idea of how to get started. I just bought a 1600cc vw powered buggy for $485.00. It needs some serious tlc but its a start. I will post pic after we pick it up.
Thanks again for the help,
Cameron

Wow, are you sure that isn't a go-kart with a torsion welded in it?? That's the shortest wheelbase i've ever seen. Good luck with the build, and keeping that buggy off of it's roof! :lol:

I picked it up today and could not belive how short it was. I'm pretty sure it will make a good trail buggy. Not so sure about going up hill :shock:

Definatly "STUBS" Because of the short wheel base being on your roof will happen. You should add a lot of trianglation tubes to add enough strength for a roll over. The vertical wind shield frame is extremly weak and will collapse really easy.
