    I hate modern cars because they're so complicated that you either have to take them to a mechanic or become a mechanic to fix them. A dune buggy is simple and easy to work on which would save thousands of dollars. I might consider getting one, great video man!

    I've always heard good things about those Bradley kit cars. and I have always liked the looks of them, sorta similar to a Cobra Daytona. but have never actually got to see what one is like in person.
    those taillights likely came off a bus.
    it's too bad you couldn't locate some disc brakes for it
    the cat said your taking away my knapping spot
    you could color match those wheels. but it's a lot of work for little return.
    hum New York I was born there.

    Over all, you did a nice job. It looks like it was thought out, not just slapped together. Great job.

    Hey man! This is amazing…..would you happen to have the bending pattern for the framework? I have e a shortened chassis of 18” and I’m wondering if this would work! Thanks for any info

      Thank you. I don't have that specifically documented, but hopefully someday we will do a full write up on it. I'm sure you can make it happen on your chassis though.

    Killer build bro! You're really making me kick myself for getting rid of my sand-rail..
    It was also VW powered: bus motor w/ Porsche internals, sitting on 33" front / 35" rear MT Baja Belted tires..
    Man, these things are a blast!! Great job as always, and Have Fun!!🤘

      @@theonomicsbuilds6133 Definitely, and Most Welcome! Ah, it's great to hear that you kept it,
      and I certainly look forward to more vids. I just remembered . . .
      When I was re-doing mine, I also went w/ the 4-into-1 'teepee' exhaust, and same deal..
      I didn't think that it had all that much power.. Interestingly..
      I made a custom end for it using a Monza exhaust/tip, then added stacked 'restrictor plates'..
      They pretty much just held in a bit more back pressure, but WOW - It was Noticeable!
      [I had it when I was over at Aftermarket Effects, and we'd take er' over to the movie theater lot
      and so asphalt burnouts, or just tear it up in the grass.] hahaha

    What kind of tube bender did you use?

      Great questions. Probably the most important part of the build, and we didn't film it lol. At the time I had a cheap one from Harbor Freight.
