[QUOTE="The-Boss, post: 680255, member: 1305"] If its a full tube buggy and you didn't build 80 or 90% of the chassis you can't say I built it. Rock buggies are more mechanical and structural than most toys. You would have to at least say I started with a bare chassis and did a full build out. Otherwise when they find out you didn't build the base chassis that they assumed you did, then you lied. All the years I have been around them, non fab work is usually not counted in "building" like it might be on a hotrod. Common for me to hear something like "WOD built the buggy then I finished it out". That usually means they plumbed and wired, had it painted, motor tuned/built ect... A full from scratch build by the owner is fairly rare. 100% of the time there is a story though. If the dude at the gas station asks did you build it? I would say "basically". If someone at the off-road park asks. I would break it down into exactly who did what. I think the response is based on what it is and who is asking. [/QUOTE]
