Here's a pic of it on the trailer next to a Polaris Ranger for size comparison:

I am 6'1" and it fits me great. Someone slightly bigger could fit in it just fine. My shorter friends tend to get lost in it though.
 
My shop mate is 6'4" and he says he fits. I've never had anyone taller in it. The driver seat has settled a good bit since I built it. I have several inches of head space with my full-face helmet on. If a 6'5"-er had a helmet on I honestly couldn't say one way or the other.

I am 6ft 5, have driven and ridden in this, I remember it fitting me very well.

The seats have only settled since then so I think a 6'5"-er might be fine. Anyone who has seen me can testify - I wear a massive helmet and still have plenty of room.
 
Well I sure hate to see you let it go. And it will quick for that price. Have really enjoyed wheeling beside it since it left the shop.You basically got all the little bugs out and tested for someone. Not that many hrs on it. Rig was built to date like you would keep it for years to come. I guarantee that. Someone is really going to enjoy those tires, ar skid, heims ect.. you JUST got. laughing1

I can say JJ has made no compromises and the buggy flat works. With the height and roll center he designed in it is insane how stable it is. Also the stock LS2 seems to have more juice than some"built" 6.0s around. It is no joke. Maybe someone else will actually let it loose. ;D

On second thought no one buy it till we make a trip to AOP. booyang
 
Got tied up with some other stuff yesterday and couldn't make it to the shop. Am going Sat. and will get good pics then.
 
Wish you would have put this up in Jan before i started on mine! It would have saved me a year of building mine! Sweet rig and good luck with the sale.

You would have had to swap in the 500 Caddy anyway. :)
 
Cleaned it up a bit today, took some pics:

This is about what all 4 stickies on the rig look like after 3 trips. Of course the spare is still new with sticker on it, unmounted:

New Ballistic rebuildable rod ends. These are the ones with the bronze races, no plastic bullshit:

On the passenger side is 2 Rousch Racing coolers plumbed together for the transmission cooler with their own dedicated electric fan. I've never seen the transmission get above 110*. On the driver side is a steering cooler with its own dedicated fan.

The two buttons on by my left foot are rear steer controls. I don't even use the hand controls anymore, but they are still there. I have two spare gas pedals (this rig is DBW) that can come with the rig, I've never needed them though. Custom brake pedal.

Custom shift gate allows you to go from any forward gear, over and straight up to reverse. This has saved me a few times. There is no shifter out there that allows a faster shift to reverse. Tread tape on the floors. Two fire extinguishers easily reachable as well as an additional one (not int he pic) to douse the engine.

Brake rotors develop surface rust the instant water touches them. It goes away as soon as you use the brakes though:

No expenses spared. This is the third fuel cap I've had on the rig because I didn't like the previous two. I've spent probably $500 just trying to find a fuel cap I liked. This one was $100 alone.

Trunk lifts up on its own using a gas strut.

Engine compartment is dirty, don't know how to get it much cleaner. Everything works though.

I've waited two years to see some detailed pics of your buggy. Just sucks its in a for sale add. I've tried 15 ways to come up with the money and can't. Good luck with the sale. Someone is going to hit the jackpot when they buy this.

I find it hard to believe you can put so much effort into this creation and part ways with it. There is only one thing that could make a man do that, the love of his family. thumb.gif
 
Damn that is one sexy beast...
Attention to detail is....just amazing.
Gosh I wish I could afford this rig!!!
