??? I dont know JACK about buggies...so dont know what is good/bad or even which versions are old or new!

What is the easiest brand/types to convert? Assuming there is a motor mount for most buggies out there, is it just mounting a braking servo and finding a place to mount the batteries/controller?

Is it just me or are these conversions pretty simple? I know back in the day when you had to fab up your own motor mount things got tricky...but seems like fabbing up a brake servo is the only real hard part. Am I missing something? Lol

Seems like there are some good deals on ebay right now...

Of the 30 or so on that ebay search (for "buggy roller" ) what would be a few good ones to watch? The only buggy I have ever owned was an ofna (dont even remember which one) and my buddy had a lightning pro buggy...

I feel like 110% newb all over again! I know a lot about most every 1/10 stadium truck made...but when it comes to 1/8 buggies they all look identical to me!

Now after seeing the price of the motor mounts...would that losi buggy that is already converted be a good option? (save the 50 bucks the motor mount would cost me).

Or do some of these ofna/lightning rollers sell for like 100 bucks, making that a better option to start with?
