The rail buggy is likely a chenowth factory frame. Most owners bought the frame and added the drivetrain at home. The frames were factory, but each buggy is custom built, and most are highly modified. They take several sized vw engines, and convert to other brand engines. The engine runs best when its warm. The handling on the buggy is sketchy because the buggy is rear end heavy for off road use. When you nail the throttle the front wheels do not touch, much. It is best to use bald skinny front tires to keep debris out of the passenger area, especially at high speed. That buggy should top 100mph with the right gear/wheel ratio. It is best, also, that your front tires are slightly taller than the rear wheels. It will run, with a snorkel, through water. The buggy sounds pretty good. It does run on points, so they need adjustments, at times. Convert to electronic ignition, and the motor will run top notch. A dune buggy is terrible for burnouts, on concrete, because they are built for rear traction. Most have posi traction. The buggy will do burnouts, offroad, all day long. The buggy isnt as bad as most people think, but You have some custom work to make it yours. It is a vehicle for off road, at its core.

In the words of our friend Finnegan, "best day at work ever!"

Freaking cool. We had a pace car like that with the oil dry too. Before the asphalt closed down here in San Antonio. Daaang sure miss those Saturday nights at the track. My pops and his best friend used be some keep me up late nights wrenching on the car all week. Going to grade school with grease on my backpack n under my fingernails. Thanks for the trip down memory lane brotha

the name for the buggy should be "the concussion machine" lol

Edit: You know, after saying that a couple times, even with the extra syllable in 'concussion', it has a ring to it. it's fine!

vintage sand rail ...bug pack fugitive frame .. That thing is a certified ripper right there ... personally built that exact same buggy for on road and sand

don't mess with this beast, it's a classic bit of history

the gas pedal in the buggy is from the 80's it's an old school part, not a hack.

The “caster wheel” on the gas pedal is a sand rail thing. So that’s normal you can buy them that way

I ran at that track for years in a traveling show of Outlaw Modified open wheel racecars. That track was one of my favorites and got a feature win on Mother's day weekend. You got a diamond in the ruff and look forward to helping out anyway I can.

Cleetus! Golden Sands Speedway here in Plover Wisconsin has a buggy just like that for doing track clean up after a accident. So cool to see another buggy.

And to think, not only do we have a legend of the McFarland Mullet....now there's also the freaking Freedom Factory!!

Not sure why but that fire safety buggy just grew on me as one of my favorite cars on this channel lol.

I definitely like the 'pace' car! That old dual-port VW sounds pretty solid. I'd put a tach in it first thing though, for you guys that like to rev stuff to the moon. About 4200 rpm max for a stock 1600 DP, and I doubt there is a rev limiter on that old buggy. If it was me, I'd clean it all up, change the fluids, etc., and keep it like it is. It's a piece of equipment for the track, not a race car. You've already got plenty of those!😉👍

When you bought the track I started watching even more this is awesome can't wait to see what y'all do with the place

That's an old VW dune buggy with a VW front end too but street tires instead of paddles. It'll wheelie!
