buggy thingy?

Do you mean a dune buggy or a sandrail? A sandrail usually has a completely custom fabricated frame/chassis. I wouldn't use the 1st gen chassis, because it doesn't have an independent suspension (at least, not in the rear).

No not a SandRail or Dune Buggy, just raise it up put like a full roll cage around the baby for major support maybe some support bars for the roof, and get bigger wheels,but for now it needs to be cleaned up majorly then see if we can even get the thing to run! I have 2 weeks to get it running other wise i have to move it to a diff place!
