I really don't need nor should have another project but this seeming manufactured frame is unusual. It even has a production/serial number on it. The seller is looking for VW engine, transmission, and rear axle parts for me. I think I will have my 13 year old grandson, who lives with us, under my guidance rebuild it into a street legal, two passenger dune buggy. Then I have an economical run down town vehical. Have two pair of rear tires. 

Teaching a 13 year old boy the value and rewards of work and sticking with something until it is finished is a priceless gift to him. Seems to me most kids these days don't want to work when they get out of school because they have never been made to work before,and have heard nothing but negative things about work their whole lives.

 

I think most of us will agree that the world needs people with mechanical skills and interests more than it needs more 18 year olds who are "too smart to do physical work because I am going to become a millionaire from designing computer games". Most of whom will end up saying "Will there by fries with that?" before it's over.
