  • This father and son with a passion for off-roading wanted to legally drive their UTVs, utility terrain vehicles, on the road. Using their knowledge of metalworking, they welded the body of a 1972 Super Beetle onto a Polaris UTV, modifying the car to be street-legal.

    Should have kept some sense of the beetle for the front. Just looks like a razor from the front

    So the son said he couldnt justifying buying a Razr but yet they still did and used it as a chasis… im confused. I had a Baja beetle in the 80’s i drove it to school and used it offroad/sand dunes. Im not sure what they are reinventing

      Couldnt justify buying a razr that you couldn’t drive on the road*

      The RGR is not street legal without the beetle over top of it because the beetle is what has the Vin number and plate, and is registerable, along with the RZR did not have the kit and stuff
      He could not justify spending the money on a vehicle that he could not drive on the road, so he spent the money on the vehicle and made it so he could drive it on the road

    You added 600lbs to still look like trash? Figure out that front end!

    The thing's still not street legal. You need both a valid legal body VIN and chassis VIN, considering this is a body on frame vehicle from the 1970s. Depending on the state and the age of the vehicle it's the engine VIN. In this case, swapping a body VIN onto an invalid chassis VIN or even one without a VIN is a quick way to get the vehicle impounded and yourself sent to jail.
    Considering this was sold to someone else according to their TikTok posts, they've just given somebody else a massive legal liability. Nice going.
