yep, me and my brothers/dad have built 2,

first was a normal2 seater beach buggy with full tube frame and a rear mounted renalt 1.2L 4cly motor, was good but we blew the motor 3 times, so we sold it

second was a side winder, first generation design, plans bought from the Egde off road shop; constructed it over a half year, matched to a fully rebuilt honda XR600 motor, after lots of testing and fixing we finally finished it, and i will say,
WOW the power this thing had was incredable, on gravel roads we could easily write our names, the power to wait ratio was stupid, 3 people could lift this off the ground.
and we oly had a 600 motor have herd or prople putting ninga or gsxr motors on them!! now that would be insane and a joke.

we sold it for 4K about 4 years ago

they are lots of work to build and get running reliable, but best fun ever trashing though some dirt roads!! good luck

ps.. did i mention they are expensive and brake alot! lol
