The homemade product with dummy machine guns and rocket launchers is based on the classic 1968 model.





An unusual homemade product based on the classic 1968 Volkswagen Beetle, which resembles a tank, has been put up for sale in the USA. The car has a modified body, a themed paint job, tracks instead of rear wheels, and dummy heavy weapons. The seller is asking $25,000. For about the same amount, you can buy a regular Beetle of the same period in good condition.

The so-called VW Battle Bug was built to order in a single copy. At the front, it received a more powerful bumper with a winch and redesigned lighting, but overall it remained recognizable. At the same time, the rear of the body had to be significantly expanded to fit the tracks. How exactly they were installed and how this affected the driving characteristics is not specified, but it is stated that the car is on the move. In the upper part of the stern, two large exhaust pipes are located. There are no photos of the interior or technical data in the ad.

A "machine gun" and a pair of "cruise missiles" are located on the roof. Another smaller "shell" is installed above the left rear wing. In addition, the entire body is decorated with warlike inscriptions, images of skulls and a bald eagle - the official symbol of the United States. The seller is ready to arrange delivery of a car created to "cause envy in neighbors" to anywhere in the world.
