That's a 902 Berrien buggy.
Sides are pretty short like Leaether mentioned.
Bottom frame rail doesn't mirror the top and is tucked in.
That reduces your cockpit area unfortunately.

I keep 1-1/2" .095 wall tubing in stock if you need any.
You are probably an hour from me.

It would be well worth your time and money to go visit with Turboblue. Pick his brain housing group for ideas as well.

I really like this one...looks like a Chenowth 4LW frame now! I should do my roof like that some day...or stretch it to a 4 seater!

Ok, you found me out I took the best "woods buggy" frame i could find and crossed it with the best "desert car" and came up with this
