"1968 White Wind Dune Buggy: A $5,900 Bargain?"

Originally Published 1 year ago — by Jalopnik

An 80-year-old seller is offering a 1968 VW-based White Wind dune buggy for $5,900, noting it needs restoration after decades in storage. The buggy, built in 1969, features a 1600 cc VW engine from a Type 3 and a four-speed transaxle. While the car has some wear and requires significant work, it has a clean title and could be a good project for someone with time to invest.

Jay Leno Takes Flight in Dune Buggy with Aircraft Engine

Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Autopian

Jay Leno drives a Meyers Manx dune buggy fitted with a 2.0-liter, three-cylinder aircraft motor from Radial Motion, producing 130 hp/130 lb-ft. The motor is all gear-driven and fuel-injected/water-cooled, with barrels and heads finned to give an almost VW-like air-cooled look. The Meyers Manx company, now owned by investor Phillip Sarofin, worked on hot-rodding one of the throwback kit versions.
