Great job looks awesome! but I think you should go a little larger in the tire department. Either way very sharp looking buggy!

I have changed the tires from 38/15 to 40/17 it looks a little more proportioned...I made the deck up rights probly 5 inches or so too tall but by the time I figured that out it was too late. This is my first buggie build and there are alot of things I would do different next time ie. the deck height.
oh yeah.....If I go bigger on the tires my little 1.8L gas sipper might not turn them.

If you are on 1/2 ton running gear I would not any bigger than 40's you might start breaking axles... lot of work transforming it, looks good!

its 3/4 running gear but i know i still have to be careful cuz the front axles are the same for 1/2 and 3/4 but i dont think my lil 4-banger has what it takes to break one though.

Good job on the deck ,rail and just over all on it . You brought that back from the dead for sure. The running gear looks like 6lug 1/2 ton Chevy , border line as for running gear . I like Dana 60's as a minimum but I've seen 1/2 ton axles hold up well to 14.9 -24's with a 4 cyl and a light foot.
Put some more pics from different sides.
