  View original topic: weird question ... How long is the average fiberglass buggy?

I'm just about to start my first project and I'm curious how long is the average fiberglass buggy is bumper to bumper? (one that has already been shortened 14.5 inches)

I'm curious because I have a limited work space and need to know if I can store it sideways in a single stall garage.

Thanks! :D

This might work as an ballpark figure - 142" or 11" 10" according to this source:

SR bodies are longer than Manx bodies -

My buggies...

The Joe Poty "Sand Rover" is 119 inches from crank shaft pulley to nose...

The Kellison "Sand Piper" is 116 inches from crank shaft pulley to nose...

No bumpers and no extra for exhaust (merged exhaust is about additional 7 inches) ...
