They are fun, had one when I was a kid. I think ours was a 83. They will work well on a trail. If U are worried about the odd mud hole they will go trough allot!b But they are only 2 wheel drive. But for $500 buy it. The only thing thats off is they only came with a 250 or the later years "the pilot" had a 350 in it. But if it runs good and works. U cant touch anything for $500, I would look at it will U get $500 worth of fun out of it?

I think origanaly they were desined for the sand dunes, from what I remember. We ran ours all year round, it was a blast in the winter, lots of e-brake turns! I also ran mine threw lots of mud holes, made it through most but not all. Just bolt a winch on the front and let the trigger be your friend.

They are not replacement for a Rhino,teyrex,RZR etc!
