While out for a nice road ride with my friend Graham, this sparkly bass boat blue buggy caught my eye, sitting for sale in Vista.

A fantastic fiberglass fabrication, possibly a classic Manx? Even if it isn't, it's still a super-cool ride.

No specs were listed for the motor, but it's a dual-port of unknown displacement and looks to be quite the spendy unit.

That black plate indicates that it's based on a pre-1969 Type 1 (aka Beetle). No surprise.

And I like how the dash incorporates the stock VW speedo and fuel gauge. Audi mats and rear brake lever knob too.
The price for this much awesome? A cool $12k.
