If you haven't talked to Jim you should call and get a quote. You'd be surprised at how much you can get for your money. I looked at and talked to all the major builders in the country for my Ultra4 chassis and chose Jim's Garage. Cost was only a small part of the reason I decided to go with Jim's. I really like the look of the chassis and everybody I spoke to that owned one had nothing but praise for their chassis and Jim. Great guy to work with. Hope to be able to pick mine up this month.

What # is Jim up to now? I really like these buggies.

rich78 · 07-16-2011, 07:34 PM

Money is down. I think Jim said mine would be #23.

52" chassis, 2 seater with spare tire rack
Will have heated up LS3, 4L60E, Atlas 4 speed
spider 9 steering axles front and back, 5:40 gears
2.5"coil overs and air bumps front and back
rear radiator, 22 gal. fuel cell

Jim's a great guy to work with. He's willing to work with any of my ideas or suggestions.

If it will cool off to less than 109 I will be out chilling on a dirt road with my Jim's Garage...but I need to change my black wheels apparently they are so 1999 and I didn't get the memo...

firetruggy · 08-17-2011, 08:16 PM

What is your wheelbase also how much head and foot room does the rear bench have

sommertime · 08-18-2011, 11:51 AM

112" Wheel base.

Plenty of room for a 6' person in the back seat.

mcutler1 · 08-19-2011, 02:56 PM

i bought this chassis second hand, a project that never got started for original owner, just a bare chassis upon delivery to me, finished myself. jim's chassis's are a great platform to build your own buggy from! all joints and nodes are expertly done and the chassis is very easy to measure from for building on square.

And, jim is very easy to work with.

random pics

specs;
117"wb, 43 stickies on racelines now, LT-1, th350, atlas 3.8, 60/14b, 16" ori's, 2010 dodge charger front clip, 4400# finished wet weight with driver.
