Duke Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Way to damn cool. Level of fabrication is INSANE!! Do you have any more pictures? Engine stuff? Headers? I just love the fabrication that is done on a lot of the off road stuff these days. Rock crawlers, pre-runners, and sand buggies like this have some of the best fabrication out there today. Makes me want to get into this kind of stuff. Quote Link to comment

The rat bastard owes me money and he is not taking my calls. Guess I'll just go over there and yank the motor and put it in my Z car. :lol: It is one of the badest sand cars I've seen. Very well put together. Quote Link to comment

Icehouse Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I used to bring my YZ250 down the the dunes all the time. Those kinda rigs are crazy!!! I saw a bronco done up like that (from the roomers going around he was some pro football dude) It would hit the woops going like 60+ insane!!! the cab was steady and the suspension took it all in... To many stories from that era :D it's amazing how much air a moded toyota can catch with the right tricks done. Quote Link to comment
fiveNdime Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I would love to have one of those, but I will stick with my banshee, hard to get one of those in the tight trails, plus you have to have a truck to tow it and an enclosed trailer to keep it shiny nice. Still want one though:lol: Quote Link to comment

I fuckin hate glamis. To many dumb shits out there. I use to go out there like in the late 60's thru the mid 80's. It was fun back then you could leave your stuff out and no one would mess with it. Now you leave a piece of :poop: out and it's gone. Just to many people. Quote Link to comment

I remember when my dad and I built a 2180 with dual carbs on a sand rail. man that think so so fucking fast it would scare the crap out of you. And we went up any hill out there, Just not at 100 + MPH. Quote Link to comment
