Bent Fabrications?

Jonesy · 07-05-2012, 03:35 PM

Anyone dealt with them before? They are running a killer deal on a chassis right now and I'm seriously thinking of picking one up.

i have a Bent fab buggy also, he good guy to deal with and knows what he doing, but when u put a Smith buggy and Bentfab buggy sxs then u know why u pay little more for Smith

Jonesy · 07-05-2012, 03:48 PM

Does Smith have a website? I haven't been able to find any pricing for his stuff yet on Pirate.

I tried to get a basic 4 seat from Bent a couple years back and he told me he was not producing chassis anymore.. I ended up with a EOR that I like..

what is the difference exactly?

Jonesy · 07-06-2012, 09:36 AM

Thanks for the info, guess I'll do a little more research and price shopping first. Twizted, that is similar to what I'm looking for, a basic tube chassis, except I want a two seater.

twiztedzuki · 07-06-2012, 10:30 AM

Smith alot more detail and alot more tube and 1 off buggy, i cut top off Bent chassis rite now and bending alot better looking cage and and engine cage, make it alittle nicer to the eye. hard to beat 2000 for a chassis also

Nuts · 07-06-2012, 03:09 PM

$2800 for a one seater or $3650 for a two seater, just not seeing the killer deal there. I'm sure there are guys on this site that could build an awesome chassi for alot less than that.

Jonesy · 07-06-2012, 05:15 PM

He is running a special intro pricing for the evo2 chassis. $1800 for the standard and $2k for the extended cab version. Still doing research, and trying to figure out what type and drivetrain I want to run.

Didn't see those prices,but they sound like a good deal for any decent chassis.

twiztedzuki · 07-06-2012, 06:43 PM

2k good deal id just add little for tube make it look more aetna type buggy. i dont like the tall shock hoops and square roofs u see on buggys around here. most comp type buggys around here look like they only used 4 sticks a tube, but i partial to Tn buggys

yellowjacket · 07-06-2012, 07:35 PM

there are cheaper chassis out there......

but like anything else, ya get what ya pay fer. Im sure u already know what performance goals you are trying to reach and have a sketched out view of how u want it to look....any builder worth his salt can work off your drawings. no need for a cookie cutter;)

hey you still makin that big diesel into a buggy someday?

twiztedzuki · 07-06-2012, 10:05 PM
