To answer your question about the zips dude - I think its one zip the runs accross the top of the door and down the back edge, it is fixed to the screen and can fold forward  |

At risk of embarrassing myself!  Are the 'gas like' bottles attached to keep this buggy afloat in case it hits deep water? They don't look like they are connected and don't seem like they are situated in the best places if they are carrying extra fuel....  Cheers, J |

I am trying to decide between a hard top and having a custom soft top like this one made:  BTW, this car is owned by a guy from North Carolina. If you dropped the hub caps, painted the wheels white and went with a white top you would have close to what I think mine will end up looking like. While I like the looks of the single hoop roll bar I like the protection of the 4 point bar he has.  --louis |

Their forum is not all that active. There is also the Dunbuggies Archive, the Dual Spot Buggies site & the RBC dune buggy forum. None are real active with just a few posts a day. The most active one is The Samba forum but there is a high dickfer quotient on The Samba so enter at your own risk. --louis |

Cheers, J Dude they ARE extra gas tanks - its a long way to Baja  I do agree not very H&S is it lol lol lol Also that other red one kinda looks like a buggy I know - roofrack, light on the roof, Tri phase air cleaner etc etc |

Yeah I agree. I think I will go with a hard top and have side and rear curtains made. Now the trick will be getting someone to ship a hard top to me.

I have been in touch with them before. They will only ship their 3 piece roof. I may get it if I can not find a one piece some where.
Thanks,
