Street legal with title, 4 seater Sandrail / Dune Buggy, V-6 Ford Capri engine (I believe it is 110 HP) with adapter, needs to be installed, engine cage, front disc brakes, VW / Volkswagen transaxle, has mounts for fenders, willing to sell without motor.

This was very well-built, very nice welds. It has the look of an old Model T or Model A Hot Rod touring coupe.

Oh snap! That's a Ford 2.6. They only came to the US in the Capri. You can tell because it's a V6 but the rear cylinders share a single exhaust port. They sound kind of nice! The design is garbage! The whole car is garbage!

I look at it and I see 4 race seats, the accompanying harnesses and some sort of appropriately stupid engine. Sort of like a lot lizard if you were dumb and had kids.

What I'm looking at is two trikes. One being a two seat reverse trike just waiting for a rear frame based on the rear end of a nice Honda four cylinder. The other is a basic VW powered trike with a the front end of that same Honda, but with extended forks, metal flake paint, and a sweet "surrey" top stretched over those "roof" bars, all done up ala Ed "Big Daddy" Roth style.

Sell the Big Daddy Roth style trike and enjoy the HELL out of the reverse trike, improving things as you go !

I have a VW Drag Rail chassis out back just waiting for time and energy to do just this same sort of thing.

If you were into reverse trikes, you'd understand:
