just got my hands on a (deregistered) wrangler today and i plan to start a new project to turn it into a dune buggy. i live in the middle east (Qatar) so there's not alot of rocks to go climbing over.
there are a few restrictions:
if cars are unregistered the police are a bit strict on what you can do with them. to use it in the desert it can no longer resemble a street car. this isnt a big problem as i planned to remove most of the body work and replace it with a roll cage (straight to the chassis). i have just been told to get away with my idea the front would have to be removed aswell (so it no longer resembled a jeep).
this is where my question is...why dont people ever remove the fronts of their wranglers?
is it simply because they want to keep the prestigious jeep front end or does it cause serious complexities?
