Ok, guys newbie to this fourm, but a newbie to Sand, Dirt and everything fast...... So my question is, been looking for a pair of fl350's or 400's. Is there enough parts out there to build this up from the frame up, or which I know the answer to this... but cheaper to build it up from the frame.... I know dumb question, but have to ask>>>
The parts are still out there if you have the patience
But unless you have plenty of time, a secret connection to a hoarde of parts, or more money than brains, trying to build one from the ground up is going to be frustrating and expensive
For example, people are asking over $500 for the steering wheel, over 2K for fenders/plastics, close to a grand for axles, etc.
If you've got that money, I'll start sending you parts as we speak :)
I agree completely, it will cost easily twice as much to piece a pilot together as it will to buy one.
This frame is good for someone who has crashed there pilot and needs a good frame.
You can get a pilot for $4 or $5,000.00 but you have to be careful most have been beat and not maintained properly, the best thing to do is be patient, you will still pay $6 or $7,000.00 for a nice clean one (unless you get lucky) but that extra couple of thousand for a real nice pilot will be money very well spent in the long run.
The hard part is finding that nice clean pilot.
Contact Nick Pena (socalgi) 1-661-312-2765, I think he maybe able to help you out.
Good luck, if you have questions post them up lots of good knowledgeable honest people on here.
