I am sorry that I was not clear. I have bought and sold rolling or running cars across the country. I have a broker that I have used for several years and am very pleased. I have also bought and sold engines and transmissions across the country and have used a freight broker.

This is somewhat in between and I was looking for an alternative. I have used Uship a couple of times with mixed results.

II appreciate your input.

We have developed new EMPI Sportster bodies in two and four seat versions. These bodies are faithful reproductions of the original EMPI design from 1964.

The kits are available un-welded and un-assembled. They include all major body parts less windshield glass and roll bar.

The four seat version shown mounts on a full length VW pan.

For more information and pricing contact:

I got the opportunity to see Vince's Sportster today, and pictures don't do it justice. I've seen a number of them, and this thing is pristine! I wish I had taken pictures to share, but I'm horrible with that. I get too excited to see the buggies, and forget all about photos. The entire car is amazing, and the engine is clean enough to eat off of.

These would be interesting(and more usable) with a Type 3 engine and a longer bed with a tailgate.

Where was the gas tank located on that black one? Mine is in the bed and I am trying to figure out where I can move it for more bed space.

T 2 , its under the back bed, its runs left to right . Its a rectangle , its go across the area where the shift coupler is. The battery is on the right where the tank ends. I think the tank is 9 inchs tall. Its holds 10 gals. The neck come through the side of the buggy on the drivers side. It has a copper fuel line on it with a cut off along the frame horn. If you go this route get one made out of aluminum and you could get a boat gas gauge for it from West Marine for it. Also I found some kind a chrome rod with alittle ball on the end I sliped a black piece of tubing I had down the rod then bent it to go in the tank so I see how much gas I have works pretty good I keep it under the seat. I dont like running around not knowing my gas level.
