I thought this would be an easy one but so far I have searched this forum and other sources and no one seems to know what this body style is. The windshield frame is molded into the hood panel and it seems to be fitted with a stock Bettle windshield.
Any ideas or other sources I may look into?

Try looking up Apache. The raised arrowhead on the hood is the giveaway. |

Genom, thank you so much for identifying my buggies body. As it turns out it is not too far away from home. According to what I have read so far it was made in Geneva Ohio which is only about one hundred miles North East of where I live. Now the search begins to find a hard top that was an option for it.
Again thank you,
Frank at Busted Knuckle Garage |

I have Just acquired a Dune Buggy project. I assume that some one will know what this is. Although it is sitting on a mid 60's chassis it's clear that it was designed to go on a 70's Cassie.

This dune buggy belongs to a relative from Puerto Rico. The actual body looks similar to a manx, but the sides where you get inside are lower when connecting to the rear fenders. The hood looks similar to Fiberfab Clodhopper:
If you guys know the model please let me know....
Thanks! |

I have an 84 y.o. friend working on this project. He claims it is an Empi Sportster.
I think it's either highly modded, or a homebrew buggy, but what say you all?
