I picked this thing up for $75, obviously needs some work, its a project for this winter. It has a pretty simple form of IRS, full roll cage, a good spot to mount the motor, and brakes already set up. It had a 650cc honda motorcycle motor in it before, so it should handle my 500cc 2 stroke ski doo motor pretty well, other than that, I need to find shocks and wheels and some other little things and it will be ready to go.

yea man but it will be a long project. I need to seriously overhaul the front end though, the steering wheel is in my balls and my knees are up to my face to reach the pedals. gotta cut it all out and move it a foot or so forward.
 
I've never seen one factory built, but if it was a home made one, they did a good job. the main frame is aluminium, square and circular tubing, perfectly bent and welded. it would take some serious time and money to home make this thing.
