One of my uncles had one of those type of looking buggy's and back in either late 80's or ever early 90's. He asked my dad to so some work on it in order to get the buggy running. I can't quite remember what was wrong with it but clearly remember the buggy used a 6V system. Once my dad got it running we took it for a ride around a lake that's like 20 miles from where we live.

New project to follow? What plans you have for this? In my neighborhood, there is very similar to this buggy resting at the back of a shed. I have been tempted to go and ask, but so far been able to resist...

We’re still tossing ideas around. My first thought was full tube chassis, long travel suspension including A arm front end and 3x3 trailing arms in the back. We have a 2.0 motor out of a Jetta with the adapter plate on the way. That will initially go into Frankenbuggy until the Subaru 2.0 is built. If I go the off road route with this buggy the Jetta motor will end up in it. If we build a ripping street cruiser out of it it will still get a full tube chassis but the motor will be a turbo 1835 that we also have in the works. What would you like to see become of this buggy given the options? Ultimately our builds are for you our subscribers to enjoy watching them being built.
