This popped up on my local Facebook for sale page and I can’t like... I want a piece. I had a dune buggy for a couple years, before I bought the Alfa, and it is to date my least favorite car. Slow, difficult to control, shit on the highway, and 100% knowledge I’d be killed in a wreck.

Still though, my biggest problem with my buggy was how slow it was and how cobbled together it was. This one doesn’t appear to have either problem as it doesn’t have an engine and looks like it has only been assembled once.

I shouldn’t and won’t buy it.... but the thought or re-doing my buggy right is... tempting.

Do you want to get invited to the death race or not?

I’ve only seen that buggy body once beforehand but I think it’s my favorite one.

Putting a WRX engine in this sounds to me like a glorious way to die . Do it.

I’m a fan of the Manx and its clones, but this one looks pretty tidy...
