appears to be stock VW suspension setup front and rear. i had a dune buggy that was like that. its not too bad, really simple. the rear has a torsion bar that runs in front of the transaxle

I'd rather have this than the dune buggy if the cab isn't rotten.

sell the plow, use the box to make a hauler bed from, and maybe a saddle mount sleeper behind a non-rotten regular cab.

or not. finish things/ sell things first, dummy.

mike, you should not blow 2K on something to further devalue the DB

yo should spend 600$ on a cool toy.


VW motors are not that hard to find, easy and simple.  Mike Universal might have a few kicking around


besides, why does it need a bug motor?

to mate to the bug transaxle? the air cooled is a different pattern than the water cooled engines.
