"Hey, an old 850 ain't much of a performer anyway, so lets weld 300 lbs of crap to the front!  Hol' ma beer!" 

I think it as more of "Let's cut off the part that makes a motorcycle fun and what makes a VW bug useful, and weld together the leftovers"

from the ad:

I started making this 3 wheel reverse trike before the Polaris Slingshot hit the market.

i think he thinks that makes him a visionary

I mean, i'd drive it.

Also i love the technique of listing out things you would trade for.

Same purpose as listing a bunch of unrelated tags at the bottom of an ad, but much more fun. Think of all the people who searched for a Miata hardtop but got to this little gem instead.

Just because you have the vision of Mr. Magoo doesn't make you any less of a visionary.

I would trade it for all of the K-9 based eco-friendly natural fertilizer in my back yard as long as he was responsible for pickup and he kept the "trike".

That isn't the Thing I was hoping for. 

Is he pouring gas into it, or is he pouring gas onto it?

He's also not too keen on VW knowledge, the supers had McPherson strut suspension, that's a standard beam in the front of it. It's not a 73 super beetle front.

I wonder how many bought into that, too. "Gee, I was looking for a crappy conversion van to haul junk parts but gorshdarnit it was so unique!"

which ever it is, he looks pretty proud

to be honest, would anyone be surprised if this guy was on here.  He seems like he would fit in

If I am to die, it's going to be in a much classier peice of E36 M3 than that. 

Looks like he took the leftovers from the guy who built a proper trike

It's all the bad and none of the good

Did not see the VW content I was hoping for

Making my home state proud! I don't even know what to say!

Thanks. I was trying to remember the name of those horrible 3 wheeled ecotoec powered disasters earlier. Now I can be better equipped to avoid them.
