Wide Open Design built buggy.
Those pictures were taken at the Wide Open Design grand opening ride in May of this year. They are the most recent pictures I have of the buggy right now.
I have decided to sell my personal buggy that I have been running for the past couple of years. I built this buggy back in 2009 to be a custom one off chassis that would handle any type of terrain and survive racing conditions. The buggy was built around the idea that I wanted something I could race as well as trail ride. It had to be able to handle go fast desert but still be able to come back to the east coast and take the abuse of the southern hill killing type ridding. This buggy has been all over the US riding and honestly is one of the most well rounded off road buggies ever built.
Overview of the buggy:
The buggy is a rear engine buggy that was built specifically to make sure that you could see out of the front of the vehicle. From sitting in the driver seat you can see the entire front axle. This buggy is small and tight with it being a 50" wide chassis the seats almost touch each other in the middle. But, this thing is comfortable!!! I have raced the buggy for 8 straight hours without getting out at all. I am 6' 3" Tall and I have plenty of room with a helmet on to pass tech.
This buggy placed 7th at the 2009 King of the Hammers
21st at the 2010 King of the Hammers
The buggy has placed well and won at tons of local events as well
This buggy would be perfect as is for someone to race Dirt Riot, ECORS, SRRS and other short course type racing events. If you were willing to add bigger By Pass Shocks to the Buggy it would be a great Ultra 4 Buggy
I have been trail ridding this buggy ever since it was built as well as racing it. The time has come for me to let this one go though.
This buggy has also been covered in many different magazines as well as on Xtreme 4x4.

I did not take any short cuts or spare any expense on this buggy when it was built. It has been ridden a lot and proven itself to be a great buggy. I feel confident that the new owner of this buggy will be VERY happy either using it as a racer or as a trail machine. The best part is that it works great for doing either one. The buggy needs a new front axle housing and I am planning on putting this in with any of the options listed.
I have broken the pricing of the buggy down a few different ways:
Take the buggy as is:
I will re skin the side panels on the buggy, replace the front housing, and look through the buggy so it is ready to go.
55,000
I will tear down the buggy fully race prep it, replace the front housing, re skin the sides, fix all of the damaged tubes in the chassis, powder coat the chassis a single stage color, and wrap the panels in a single stage color wrap. This will give you a pretty much brand new buggy when you pick it up from me.
65,000
After I sell this buggy I am going to build another one. So, I am open to offers on this buggy with me keeping the engine, winch, wheels/tires, and anything else I can use on my next build. This will just have to be a case by case deal on what a buyer and my self could agree on.
Please contact me by e-mail at [email protected] or call me at the shop 615-962-9135 for any questions or more details. Please do not P.M. me on here with questions. I do not check back nearly as much as I do email. I will be more than happy to answer any questions that any one may have about this buggy. It has served me well for the past couple of years and I'm sure I am going to miss it!
Thanks for looking,
