What 4 seater chassis would you buy?

[UFAB]

Looking for some opinions on what 4 seater chassis would be the perfect fit.

Ibec

Artec

Blue Torch

Trent

Jimmys 4x4 ( they make a 4 seater version of the Falken Tire build)

Jimmys

I like the Wide Open design 4 seater

Hate the ibex

Bluetorch is nice if you want it to look like a jeep



But when it boils down to it.....they are all generic. Gotta build your own to make it the right fit

Exactly. You have the skills, the basic chassis is the easy part anyway--save the money you'd spend on a chassis to use on all the other nickel-and-dime stuff, and start drawing.

I like trent fab looks
I would want jeep hood and grill but I am a CJ dork

Build your own Mitch.

That aside T fab and Jimmy weren't too bad. Im in the hate ibex crowd. I just don't see any appealing lines in their chassis.
I cant comment on the others listed.

If i was a rich man and did not know how to turn on a welder i would hire out Jesse Haines to fab me one.


This jimmys 4 seater is super sexy but its also huge and leaves little room for rear seating.

Stretched Jesse Haines chassis

I dig the stretched JH option.

So many options. Almost everyone is laser coping and cnc bending in a factory some place. Wife says doors and a heater. Hmm. This might be a two vehicle kind of thing

I built my wife the luxury wheeling machine and as soon as I finish my buggy. we will just take both rigs everywhere

2 rigs really is the best way to go and keep everyone happy

 

[N-Smooth]

I'd build my own. By the time I had something modified for my height and the backseat capabilities I would want it would be worth it just to start from scratch. Lots of cool options out there though!

....and the backseat capabilities I would want it....

easy there trigger....need to know basis there

Hahaha I'm just looking to fit my kids back there, not make more!

this is how we play too.

I hope I can't fill up 2 four seater rigs with kids...

Jimmy's are ugly! Ben swains I the only one I like and it's still ugly. The artec is fine. Wide open looks cool but they all look alike. Bent fabrication has a sweet chassis.

Why not build Mitch? It seems like with your skills and hardware that your time/$ could be better spent building it the exact way you want.

 

[UFAB]

The time is a concern. But throw all the parts on a table and build around them. Almost pushing 6k lb rig is to heavy. Love to see 4500lb 4 seater

 

[I Lean]

Look to Herzog's rig for inspiration, but with V8 power.

 

[TEAM FRED]

Artec. Because time is money. And they are cool cars.

 

[SUPERFLY]

Jimmys hands down. They have a few 4 seat options... But I'm a bit bias

Hey! I like heavy, tired, and slow motors.
