I was offered a 1929 Mercedes Gazelle that is really rough.

Light bulb went off turn it into a Afrika Korp style dune buggy.

Has anyone done this?

Any pictures?

That sounds like a good idea. Very interested in what you come up with.

If a buggy project gives you a vision then go for it. This is the place for VW visions. It makes it one of the best parts of theSamba, IMHO.
