Whether speeding across vast sand dunes or navigating rough offroad terrains, dune buggies offer an unmatched offroad capability and thrill. Dune buggies, versatile and rugged, cater to a broad spectrum of enthusiasts from casual adventurers to serious offroad racers."" Bnbtravelandtours.com
For consignment, a 1970 Volkswagen Dune Buggy showing 4,2498 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This one checks all the boxes for stance, color, and overall good looks that just scream fun!
Note: This vehicle is sold with a Maryland reconstructed branding on the title
Exterior
If you're going to be out in the sun, you might as well wear its color as this fiberglass body buggy does and there's no fancy name for it other than Yellow! It's still open wheeled but integrated fenders form a tall canopy over each wheel preventing sand from being kicked in your face. The aluminum slot type wheels are 14-inch and carry 205/75R14 tires and along with the suspension, lift the car off the ground so you can clear egg laying sea turtles, sand castles, sidewinder rattlesnakes and anything else your sand adventures encounter. Cuteness comes from the bugeye headlights with one noted as winking slightly and might need a nut tightened while marker lights are mounted in front and round tail lights in back. The black plastic roof keeps the sun off your skin and of course, can be removed. The exterior is in great shape with no noticeable imperfections.
Interior
Typically sparse, you'll climb over the sidewall and find a seat in one of the two black cloth bucket seats and we recommend the left one. There, you'll be supplied with a three spoke steering wheel and single VDO gauge up front along with a few indicator lights and knobs in the formed fiberglass panel. The floor is black and barren and the transmission tunnel holds the shifter. This example has a cargo bed with side rails so you can carry towels, your cooler, and driftwood for your beach bonfire.
Drivetrain
Out back is a 1500cc flat four cylinder with a 1-barrel carburetor and a 4-speed manual transmission. Power is kept in the back where it travels through 4.1235 gearing and the car runs on a 12 volt system.
Undercarriage
Clean, driver quality underneath with lots of belly pan real estate and tubular framing. The dual exhaust has no mufflers on board and exits through two tips out back. Disc brakes up front and drums in the rear while both front and back suspension is independent with a transverse torsion bar up front and semi trailing arm and transverse torsion bar in the back.
Drive-Ability
No dunes in landlocked Morgantown, so our flat tarmac will have to do. The flat four does its thing and provides plenty of power while the car tracks straight and handles turns well and we can only imagine the rear tires fishtailing through the sand. We note the one gauge is not working and it includes a speedometer, odometer and trip odometer, and of course, that loose headlight up front moves around quite a bit. All other functions operate as they should and we scoot this yellow toy back to the mall. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Driving an open dune buggy is about as close to living out your childhood dreams as you can get. This time, it has a gas pedal instead of bike pedals, an internal combustion engine instead of rechargeable six volt battery, and real capabilities to go some distance! This would make a great beach town cruiser for those quick runs to the mart, or an actual offroad adventurer you can tow to the dunes.
