Title: Re: thinking of buying this what do you guys think
Post by: FORKEDUP on August 02, 2007, 08:40:57 PM: i had a 71 convertible, 1641dp lots of chrome, full cage, harnesses, high back buckets on sliders, extra buckets, extra harnesses, full set of desert tires and full set of paddles with front smoothies on polished wheels, ran great, lot of lighting for at night, sold it for 3300.00[attach=#]

Post by: AQUAHOLIC on August 02, 2007, 08:45:01 PM: ya that truck is nice. but about 60k over my budget. i am just looking for somthing to beat the crap out of.

yes it has a cage but the guy said the welds are not the prettiest. and that is fine with me i can weld. and he says the front end he has is off a class 16 race buggy and is worth about 2k. cause it comes with the breaks and extended arms. 4 inch..

anyway i am really looking into this. there seems to be a huge ammount of options for these things and migh be a fun project for a long time..

any more info would help
thanks guys.

Post by: FORKEDUP on August 02, 2007, 08:51:58 PM: we had a blast with ours, kinda sorry i sold it, i beat the shit out of it and it always came back for more, options are unlimited for them, you can even get a bolt on a-arm conversion kit for it, gives it about 13" travel, check out samba.com there are usually alot of them on there for sale, good price check, but the price doesn't sound bad to me at all, especially with the extra front end
Title: Re: thinking of buying this what do you guys think
Post by: AQUAHOLIC on August 02, 2007, 09:02:32 PM: do you know where you can get that front end conversion kit at.
Title: Re: thinking of buying this what do you guys think
Post by: FORKEDUP on August 02, 2007, 09:10:04 PM: try this http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=245455 it is a fiberglass buggy with the kit on it, still has a vw pan so mounting is the same
