Oh I def agree with you guys about the fact that it would cost more money. The quality of materials and workmanship could make it profitable enough for a smaller entity to compete if (that's big IF) there is a market out there. Just like Popeye brought up Orange County Choppers or the other countless small custom-auto/bike shops.

I sorta meant to ask like how much more would it be??? Say double maybe triple that of your mid-line 500 dollar buggy?

The thought of a custom built monstrosity can be appealing to some! You guys should advertise in Kite mags! :thumbup:;)

___ you've been keeping him stocked with project beer haven't you? I have a welding buddy that works much better if he knows there are cold ones in the fridge in his garage. I just show up with a 12 pack and that's usually good for whatever my project is. A buggy might need several though.
