how far can I go?

[landtank]

So, how far can I move toward a full out buggy and still be able to drive it on the street?

Cut the top off
shorten the wheel base
bob the rear
exo skeleton
37" tires with a 6" lift
sans doors

what is my limit before a ticket?

you can go all the way..

in Kalifornia
you could pull it off in Mass,
heck weed is practically legal there

pix pleez

I'll bring the sawzall!
FWIW I know some guys that build mostly jeep buggies and sami buggies and they could give you pointers as for laws and guidlines.
Get a trailer and tow it. That souped up turbo should pull it!

80 buggy or 40 buggy?

Register it as a kit car and follow the rules.

am I reading this right, it's basically a wide open field?

80 buggy or 40 buggy?

right now I'm thinking a shortened 80, and his name shall be Buford!

Yeah, Mass doesn't seem too picky other then the vague "max suspension lift" thing.

Here in VT they are obsessed with the tire tread coverage (fender flares covering the tires)... technically, depending on where you go.

If N8 can still run Grace around in the city you should have no problem

What are you mad? youll poke your eye out.

That truck is nice Rick. You can stay at my place if you scoop it up, just an hour away. Ive seen it and crawled around but not gotten to ride in it. Beauty is she is still street legal in good ole NC. Still a big fat pig when sitting next to the buggies but cool none the less. I think it needs some skins made up and the p wheeled outta it till the axles go to tons
