burakol 462 Posted March 4, 2021 Came across this listing on facebook marketplace. It says a Frog chassis for $70. Seller claims to know nothing about it except that it comes with a Revtech motor. I know nothing about this chassis as well so I am wondering if it's worth his asking price, plus considering the parts that I may need to source to rebuild... Am I better off getting a new kit instead, or do you guys see some potential here? I do see some YOU-G front tires and probably some other hop-ups based on the color of the parts alon but not too sure... I have not built this chassis before ever. Thanks.

futureworks 864 Posted March 4, 2021 And the heat sink looks like it’s something like one of these. It’s been so long since I built a frog, but looks like the front suspension has had a ‘home-made’ modification as those front dampers and damper towers are not original.

Frog Jumper 3661 Posted March 4, 2021 There are some Hop-ups on the car including: blue Parma heat sink revtech motor 3rd party rear shocks Parma rear sway bar CRP front bumper unkniwn front shock mods Parma uni-shock front arms 3rd party tires And probably a few others Is the car worth it??? As a first ORV, no. Buy a ReRe. As a second ORV, yes buy it for the Hop-Ups. If the car is wrecked, no amount of cool hop-ups will fix that. My opinion...

Frog Jumper 3661 Posted March 4, 2021 Also, based on the steering mechanism, I’d say this car started life as a Brat... Terry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
burakol 462 Posted March 4, 2021 Thank you. Ill see if i can bring the price down a bit. It will probably sit for a while before finances gets better. Tbh, i probably should pass given that a 4th child is on the way... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
El Gecko 1344 Posted March 4, 2021 I'd have to know a lot more about it before dropping that much, but if I was in the market for another project Frog (and enough of the car was usable), this would be a good start to a cool period restoration. Guessing it's a Brat that was converted to Frog spec (with a few extra hopups) for someone's weekend racer back in the day, but it's actually a bit of a mind boggler for one big reason: It's hard to say if the chassis has been dyed or painted, but that dark gray spaceframe was only used on much later Blackfoot series ORVs.
