The combination of a balanced, light, stiff chassis with the fiberglass body proved to be very competitive on the Autocross circuits across America, SCCA track events and even the Pikes Peak hill climb events.The unique GS Kit included: custom tubular chassis, fiberglass floor pan, fiberglass toe box and fiberglass engine cover.Autodynamics race car crew provided creativity and engineering far beyond a typical repair shop. In hindsight, they provided some truly remarkable race cars and dune buggies.IN THE 1960S the sports car guys hated the Deserter GS; it was so fast but looked like a dune buggy. I dont know what the times would be like today, but back in the day a Deserter GS turned a 1:08 at the Lime Roce track and a 289 race Cobra (Chassis 18) turned a 1:04 time. The deserter had a stock Corvair 140 horse engine with a 4bbl carb and the Cobra ran a full race 289. both drivers were serious amateurs.This car last had a VW engine. In as much it is swing axle, it would be no difficulty installing a Corvair engine by flipping the ring gear in the transaxle.SOLD AS IS. CAR IS FOR SALE ELSEWHERE AND WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO WITHDRAW THE CAR IF SOLD
