Buggy

[88XJ]

As I stated before after last weeks recovery mission my wife and I are interested in making a budget build buggy with BUG body. what I have a line on is a CJ8 frame ( basket case right hand drive mail jeep almost complete) for 600. and two jeep fulls size trucks one 1/2 ton and one 3/4 ton both with 360's don't know if either one works. 1/2 has 360, bad trans,D44 F&R, th400 auto, and a decent 30 something body. the 3/4 has 360, th400, dana 20? actualy (Quadra trac BW), D44F/D60R bad body all for 900. I was thinking of putting the 3/4 drive train on the CJ8 frame and using the 360 from the 1/2 ton. I am still short the body, if anyone knows of one cheap I would appriciate it! Does anyone have something else that would be better?, I don't know of any zuk around. Is the D60 rear end worth using with the lower ground clearance or the D44 I don't think the weight would be a issue. And I might have alot of jeep parts to get rid off in a hurry because my neiborhood doesn't like old cars hanging out. let me know what you think.
