I don't get it.

What could that truck be used for?

Zeitgeist 13 Fri Apr 18, 2014 6:26 am

It's used to take up space at car shows



I'd like to see how the bags are installed and controlled

To simply sit there and look good. Not unlike a trophy wife.....

Don't like it, but then i'm sure the owner wouldn't like half the crap i enjoy.

It apprears the logo in the bed is for Rayvern Hydraulics so I doubt it's on air. They've been building pretty over the top cars for years in the euro scene...

I totally prefer them lifted :wink:

It would sure be easy to load a motorcycle in the back with that deck height. I am usually a lifted kinda guy, but for some odd reason I like lowered vanagons/bus'...
In the end to each their own.

street legal? the height of the headlights and taillights must be pretty low

insyncro Fri Apr 18, 2014 11:58 am

The pictured vehicle appears like it would have an air ride system installed.
Flip the switch and she pumps right up to a driveable height.

I LOVE IT! But I love lifted Vanagons also, and they're easier to drive.

I think it's 100% badass.

the one similar to this for sale on the samba is using suspension from a Bay.

it may not be really useful but I don't care. looks super cool.

the worst part of these super low setups is the steering wheel ends up between your knees which is a bit awkward.

Probably won't see it at Syncro Solstice!
