Great photos! Man I bet you had a blast!


Most impressive (besides placing at NORRA) is that Joe drove his same puzzle buggy there & back from W Virginia!

My new, to me, Dune Runner mini mercedes. Fifty years ago my dad brought one of these same buggys home. We had a blast in that thing for the rest of my childhood, including throwing two different siblings out of the buggy doing donuts in the jr high school parking lot. Yes, dad was driving. This is the first one with the same body I've seen since then. Had to buy it. I've been underneath it for 6 weeks now. All new brakes (front disc), including lines, drums, master and wheel cylinders, everything. New wheels, tires, shifter, steering wheel, cables, clutch, stock 1600dp long block, 34-pict3 carb, seats, resealed trans, and more that I can't remember at present. Took it for it's first drive farther than around the block today, about four miles to the starbucks and back. Runs better with each mile.

Still a lot to do; seat belts, roll bar, minor fiberglass repairs, paint (will be metallic magenta-ish), mini top etc and just sorting it out for longer drives. Just in time for the Seattle rain season. Meanwhile, my brother is down on the oregon coast with his Manx ( a real one) running the dunes. Timing is everything.

Just built this in 5 weeks at my AZ house. aZ so had to go with sun yellow. Fairly beat up body to start with so went with tinted Raptor Liner for the textured tough but lovable look.

The stance of this buggy is killer! Nice job on the wheel / tire combi. And would like to see more pics of the mini bike.

Thanks!!!
Don’t have to many other pics of the MiniBike, its just a no name $100.00 one I got from a friend that runs. We took it apart once the Buggy was done to clean it, paint it, and had the seat upholstered to match the Buggy.
