Next time they get the shai hulud. In the meantime, it’s off to. . . GG Park? The golf course? Where in San Francisco would you need such a vehicle?

Riding in the back of this is like being JFK in Dallas, without being shot in the head. People wave, smile, and cheer. I felt like a millionaire, if people liked millionaires.

Automotive experts, correct me if I mis-remember, but… Aren’t these 60s-vintage buggies just VW Beetles with better suspension and fatter tires (plus a groovy fiberglass shell — I remember metal-flake gold being popular)? So why wouldn’t you need one?! I need one, and I don’t even drive anymore.
You’re correct. Aside from perhaps a slightly upgraded swaybar and rear suspension, all dunebugs are plain old vw pan(sans the metal frame). I believe this includes the original meyers manx models.
