Toyota 4-runner Buggy
Located in Castle Rock, Colorado 80109
Fully built Toyota 4-seater (5 seater actually, with a full width factory bench seat).
Built this rig with all parts that I could dream of to build it once, and it has worked flawlessly for the years since complete.
I have the title/BOS from the last owner, but have never registered it, I just buy OHV stickers for it as it is trailered everywhere. I would assume that you can register this wherever you live, and can license it for street use. I never had the need or desire. This has only driven on less than 1 mile of asphalt (moab) since I completed the build.
Selling because I bought a new buggy. Please don’t lowball me. Only trade I would be interested in is a RZR 900/1000, 4 seat preferred, but would consider a 2 seater
Completed the build in 2010, have wheeled all over Colorado and Moab with the rig, and it has performed well on all extreme trails.
