Thanks for the insight everyone

[Tubs]

Thank you everyone for the reply's. Everyone definitely has showed me it would be worth it to just build a buggy, a truck can wait. I am starting to get an idea of what I have. Its a really nice buggy and it could be a learning experience to just build it the way it is. Now does anyone have any ideas on were I should start?

Thanks

Well it apears that is has never been run (or close to). I would bet that someone here would gladly trade you a good truck chassis (or any other platform you wish) for that chassis. I don't know how rare they are, but it would be sad to modify a perfectly good Composite Craft chassis to make it a short wheelbase truck (if this is what you are after). If you are just after putting a truck bulkhead on the front, then I don't know if it will fit properly with the existing holes, even if it is cut down? I am sure someone else more knowledgeable on this subject will chime in though.

That car is in great condition and a very nice piece even in lesser condition. I would clean it up and keep it exactly as is. You can pick up a cheap truck on ebay ending about every other hour. Sorry to give an opinion instead of answering the question, but I'd hate to see that chassis eat it.

Offer sent!

Same exact thing I told him.

The only thing I would do to it is take it apart and clean it up. There are a bunch of posts on how to clean the white stuff.

Keep it! Thats an minty lookin chassis and I may be wrong but I think its worth alot more that any truck.hit ebay and buy a truck or buy one here if you can.Clean that car up and enjoy it.My 2 cents

Well, if you are going to run it, then at least put a chassis protector on it (they are cheap enough, and the AE sheets can do 2 chassis). It will keep the chassis in good condition for longer, and keep dirt out of the heads of the screws. The protector does make maintenance a BIATCH though . -Jeff

x2 keep it

I have never heard of a chassis protector. I definitely think that is a great idea. I have started taking the car apart already, is that protector like a sticker that goes on the chassis to add an extra layer of protection? I cant wait to be able to drive it, I have been without a runner for to long.

i know its hard but strip it clean it and shelve it you can pick up a beater of the bay or the guys here will sort you out with a runner it would be a shame to scratch up such a nice example the protecter only dose so much !
