    4"-6" crack on tub of hustler. Worth buying/fixing?

    I'm really wanting a 6x6 project. I found a project that's all in pieces but complete. The owner said it was cracked in a few places (4-6") on bottom tub/body. He said he would include a plastic welder in the deal. Is it something that could be fixed (welded) or would it be a nightmare for me? I want a new one but can't afford another note as I have two rzr's 900cc-1000cc. I've been looking on ebay for one local (Houston) but they're hard to come by. I'm looking to spend around $1000 or so for a decent project. Any local leads would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for ant advice, Brad

    Plastic welding takes some skill and experience to make good welds. I've done a number of them with mixed results, and personally I would avoid anything big. I have had excellent luck with a certain epoxy, but just like plastic welding, the prep work before will make for a strong or weak repair.
