Show us your offroad buggies modded for on-road bodies
I'd be intrigued to see what some of you guys have done to mod your off-road buggies for on-road/touring car use. I think many of us have thought about modding our off-roaders to mount a 1/10 full body, but how many really take the mods to the next level, changing the suspension, wheelbase, track, or even powertrain to get a buggy-based on-road car looking and working well? That's what I'd love to see.
Whether it's just popping a full body on a buggy or a full-on mod project, share some of your on-road-adapted cars here.

Wow, those are nicely done cars, very cool mods! I'm learning that it takes a lot more than adding body mounts, shortening shock travel, and adding a body to make a proper on-road-worthy car...

Re: Show us your offroad buggies modded for on-road bodies
modded stealth tranny, on/off with stock dog bones and stub axles depending on where i drive it other wise the cvd's are on, stock shocks (1.32 and .56) naturally lowered within, no lowering kit, no body mounts, kydex all the way around just like the dead pool movie cars. and all this with foams. takes some real balls to drive this car full throttle on the streets at times, because of the money put in the car. dusty roads+foams=ouch

I'm not sure about that one, but HPI makes a similar one. It's a 67 Vette.
