Classic Car Overview

1970 Volkswagen Dune Buggy Shortened VW Pan 1350cc Engine Extensive New Parts

This 1970 Volkswagen Dune Buggy is built on a shortened VW pan and powered by a 1350cc air-cooled engine. The seller has invested extensively in getting the buggy mechanically roadworthy, replacing a long list of engine, fuel-system, brake, suspension, steering, and interior components.

According to the seller, the buggy runs and drives very well with no known oil leaks or visible exhaust smoke. Mechanically, much of the work has already been addressed, while the body and paint remain an opportunity for the next owner. The seller notes that the body presents well from a distance but that the previous paintwork is below the quality they would ultimately want.
