Now you just need to find a windshield and soft top framework for it.

May seem like a silly question but here goes. Is there any chance of making a goat road legal in any state. Thought it would look pretty cool rolling through town.

Mine is road legal. I have driven it over 700 miles this year. Mostly short trips. There are a few Goat places for parts.

what kind of speed can you reasonably get out of a goat on the road? How's the ride quality?

Speeds of 45-50 are easy to hold(except steep grades). I think I get about 10 mpg. The ride is great, the seat gets uncomfortable after an hour or two(I get uncomfortable in a new car, after an hour or so also though).
