Vehicle Detail
This is a 1963 VW Manx Style Dune Buggy I purchased and restored over the last year, and is now completely street legal. Everything works i.e... lights, brakes, wipers, horn, engine, trans and so on). I had the 1600 CC engine and single carburetor gone through last year, along with the synchronizers in the 4 speed manual transmission, and repaired the floor pans. I had tires and rims "Upgraded" at the same time, the Front tires are 8" Deep BFGoodrich P225/60R15 95S M+S and the Rear tires are 10" Deep BFGoodrich P295/50R15 105S M+S and are still new. ( UPGRADES ) really too much to list The electrical system has been converted to 12V, including the Alternator. The Distributor was upgraded to a Pertronix Ignitor The Fuel pump has been upgraded to an electric fuel pump. The cooling system upgraded by with fan and also a thermostat. Added an 8" External oil cooler with fan Removable Custom Made Off-road / Mud Fenders. Replaced Interior seats and interior carpeting. New Baja Chrome Headlights New Front & Rear Bumper New Rear Led Lighting System New 4 way Holographic undercarriage projection system Removable Custom Canvas cover, so you can store inside or out without ruining interior, although you can't use it when driving it. I am selling this because I am done playing with it and would rather see her go while she is still beautiful, that and my new Girlfriend has told me I have to finish my 1923 T-bucket so she can park in the garage by the end of the summer. Either way you win. I will take cash or possibly trade and cash for old cars, boats, RV's, etc. . . But please! Mine runs and is clean, don't ask me to trade for your 1982 corolla, and no I did not wake up today thinking I want to give it away, or be screwed over by a stranger who bids and don't have the money. So please I put a lot of work and time in her, and guarantee everything I done. Thanks for looking and good luck.

I had the IDF 40 rebuilt, and a 36mm Venture added to get it to 260cfm for max powerI changed the 6" oil cooling fan to a 12" for added safety and avoid overheating when idlingI built a custom "LED" Holographic Undercarriage Projection System so you can project "The Punisher" or any thing you want when parked or driving at night and not drain battery. Looks awesome when you park and come back people just gather around it and gawk at the skulls, definitely gets attention even when you're not driving it.I also added a Semi Truck horn so bad drivers get your point !I also had a set of Custom built removable fender skirts built incase you want to go Off-road and protect yourself and the paint job !!!I had a custom Sombrero Cover built so it can be left outside and the interior is protected for trips, etc...
