I just figured using a bug chassis would be because because they're so freaking common, and parts are cheap generally. I picked up my baja for 50 bucks, so I know that most of the time, they are cheap.

And I'm not familiar with the 5xwhatever lug stud pattern (no lugs on my bugs!), but the for the four stud it's 4x130mm. I really wanna go through with this now. Still torn on if I should keep the body or not though. The concept of making doors is the only thing that has me hesitant.

Sorry for the threadjack, just excited. I love this stuff.
Would it make more sense for you to lower it and then modify the rear for a boat tail?





Basically just cut the back off and custom build the rest... it could be a fiberglass clamshell if you don't want to beat panels :P
