Buggy/sandrail/sand car/wood buggy/ same thing we all say “oh shit”

[@veteransrides9165]

This is very true!

[@jaysencorbett1855]

Do you have a video on what you needed for passing chp inspection?

[@veteransrides9165]

We don't have a video about that actually. The car was registered out of state, but, built in CA. You will need to adhere to the DOT laws in that state, and you should be fine. I think the vehicle was registered in Michigan, if I'm not mistaken.

What material was used to make the hood and the sides on your buggy?

[@veteransrides9165]

He said, "Aluminum, designed with a bead roller". Does that answer your question?

[@andrewkazanova5751]

do you have any videos to make this nice shape

[@veteransrides9165]

We do not...
