unidentified automobile
tsewei | May 27, 2008Okay, this is something from like over 2 weeks ago: I was back in Malaysia and my mom was driving me and my sisters to 1 Utama. We were headed there for shopping and dinner. And while on the road we spotted a tow truck towing a very odd-looking car.
Not sure what kind of car (vehicle? can we call it a car?) that was. So since I had my camera with me, why not snap a shot. My mom happily obliged by following behind the tow truck so that I can get a decent shot of the strange car. She even pulled up right alongside it so that I can get this shot:
Those seats look like some kind of race-car seats? Check out the seat belts, and the old-school stick shift heh. But hey, it’s still a pretty cool car — or whatever it is. :p
Looks like a Caterham or a Caterham clone of some

It's a VW-based sandrail. Front suspension is 100% certain VW
BikerVoodoo | May 31, 2008 | 1:36 amIt’s a VW-based sandrail. Front suspension is 100% certain VW Beetle torsion beam type. Shifter is a Hurst VW shifter or clone. Also note lack of front mounted engine as conclusive proof that this is a VW (rear engined). I wonder if someone imported this VW Sandrail chassis (Could be something from any of the big manufacturers - http://www.roadsters.com/sandrails/#sources) … OR … it could be scratchbuilt, which would make it more interesting!!
well i dunno what it is, but it is cool!!
