I would say somewhere around $3000.00 given the lack of bling, but still being pretty cool. definetly looks like a fun toy

Manual steering and lockers f/r.... Looks like it might double as a workout plan!

$3000 tops. its a pretty basic rig and thats what a comparable full bodies rig would go for. the manual steering shouldn't be too bad its only 1500 lbs!

I would try to get as low as possible. No skins, no dash, stock axles. All you are buying is a very basic crawler. I would shoot for under 2k, there ain't much there.

Whats his asking price.

There is a lot of fab time inot what is their! Is it bling bling... no. But I think between 2 and 3000 is fair

Needs longer shocks, those won't travel out that much farther.

His asking price was over $5000, but I didn't want to disappoint him since I was thinking somewhere in the $3000 range as well.

I am just wondering if this buggy would be a good platform to drop Toy axles under, get some bigger shoes, extend the wheelbase, etc.

He has definitely put alot of manhours in the chassis, however I am really worried about the axles. The 1.3 doesn't scare me as much, since I could easily replace if needed. With the weight only at 1560lbs, I want to make sure I could use it as a building platform down the road.

Thanks for the input from all- It is much appreciated.
