Look for a buggy that has potential. Make sure there is room to move the pedals forward or the seat back, or both. Buggys are personal , custom fit,,,welcome to the world of fabbing and modifying.

If you can find a buggy to buy with good running gear and parts, the frame is actually one of the cheapest major components of a buggy. Buy the buggy, have a frame built to fit him, and switch it all over. Then sell the other frame to recoup a little money. And doing this gives you a chance to clean up, do maintenance on, and check everything. Then you/he will REALLY know what you got.

Buy a four seater and move the seat back.
