It's the old dunebuggy I built @ work 5 years ago. 1952 VW bug chassis, with a 1.8L aircooled engine. Fast as balls, built to last. He bought it off my old boss for $400 with a trailer, a trailer that can haul real cars too. Mt ex-boss is a jerkoff, glad Vosko got it.

dorifto??????

duneifto?

yeah, actually it does drift really well. due to the fact that it only has rear brakes. 30+ MPH, hit the brakes, counter steer and dorifto is born!

Whats the top speed on that buggy?

sweet!

That is cool. Looks like tons-o-fun.

well I can't tell you top speed, due to no speedometer. But I can tell you this. It definatly weights less than 800 pounds, it's got a 4 speed tranny, and the engine was out of an old vw bus, and I know those things could hit 80+mph.

When I first built it at work, and got it running, I took it for a spin on the street. I never made it to 4th gear, because I could tell I was doing atlest 40-50MPH, and with only rear brakes, it's kinda hard to stop.

fast isnt fast enough

Our biggest problem now is where to use the damn thing. Not exactly alot of "open fields" or "back woods" here in north jersey :(

Bad ass@! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

all it needs now is a BP or PP 12A or 13B.

that is the definition of boys toy, u should build piles of like garbage cans and stuff just to smash through em..... and post the vid on nopistons



where do u leave the keys

He'll break it.

They are breakable, trust me I just sold one, sand, vw i-h engine = rebuild often.



I tried all the goodies to keep the sand out of that engine, sand seals, all the goodies, u just can't easily do it, there are too many gaps.

I concur.

vosko wont run it in the sand, he will drive it down the street

a few times then it will sit until he sells it

Vosko, bring it up here to PA...you know we're all about the open land...hell you could take it up the mountain road i just went up last night...about 6" wider than a Jeep, with a 1,000 ft. dropoff on the side! awesome!

Drifting in sand you spread is better than drifting on cafeterial trays
