I want one to dump one on some cool wheels and stick a big hottie motor in it. Just to piss off the purists 😀

Very nice very original buggy phat rat.
Now try this! Chopped, rough body, and that just the owner. The buggy also has bigger wheels and a 1600 twin port which is fairly standard.......have a spare 1600 tp which will be a bit worked.........after the kombi project!

country dubber · 25 Apr 2005, 6:32 pm

now for the pic!

phatrat · 25 Apr 2005, 6:37 pm

As for the poll, what about own one, or in my case own two.

country dubber · 26 Apr 2005, 9:04 pm

It goes on the beach OK but only with the big wheels. Also if you do get a bit stuck you cant reverse out as it just digs in! Im sure this is down to the reduction boxes and why most beach buggies run an IRS. The BIG advantage with the reduction boxes is good ground clearance and able to run big wheels and still have good gearing.
