Bahh HUMMBUG !
This car has been SOLD!!
This is a "Hummbug" a short lived VW based replica of the Hummer.
This particular car was originally built for Al Unser Jr of Racing fame in 2001.
It has only 5,000 miles on it since then and features a brand new (less than 100 miles) 1835cc engine
and a long list of special upgrades and cool bits.
The car is located in Arizona and remains in very nice condition and shows no signs
of any abuse. It is prehaps one of the nicest and best equipped Hummbugs that I have ever seen...it has a great look
and seems very well sorted and would be a blast to run around with.
The car is very clean and the details all seem well done.
Engine is super clean and dry underneath.
