I found this rare specimen in the NET.

What do you think?

Do you really need a co-driver with this?

I don't think it was designed to have both engines running at the same time. I think you pick one or the other. That thing is pretty damn ugly, haha.

Interesting. All that work I would have at least picked better cars to stick together.

But 20k? lmao.gif

Disappointed to see engines only run one at a time. They probably wouldn't work well running together anyway.

1973 Volkswagen Bug and Subaru GL Custom - No Sale at $20,000

This car is an invention. It is a 73' Volkswagen 111 Buggie in the back and a 85' Subaru GL in the front. And it does work.

It has 2 motors (one located in the back and another in the front), so if one of them were to fail or not work, the other one can take over and replace it.

It has 2 transmissions which are both manual.

Economic, gas saver, and very reliable.

$20,000? I'd buy it, but it has no trunk for my subwoofer.

how economic can it be if it's hauling around an extra drive train all the time?
