Other toys lets see em
Yes saw a few buggies out in Little Sahara Dunes in Oklahoma with the 6 cyl Corvair Power. They had a very unique cool sound to them, unlike the Japanese V6s with the fart cans on them.
That's what was so fun about them during that time period. Everyone from all over the country were building their own buggies. All kinds of engine trans combos, and suspensions. Dual webber carbs were big at the time, and a few guys were just starting to stroke their VW Blocks to 2275 cc. That was the lastest and greatest stuff at the time.
Now the Guys are using the reliable water cooled Subaru's flat 4 configuration as top of the line.
Here is the local bunch from around here with the new long travel versions of the buggies that were all built from scratch.
Pictured at St Anthony Dunes in Idaho this Fall. Toyota Power, Stoked VWs, Turbos, Fuel Injected Subarus for power plants, and 5000.to 7000 dollar heavy duty custom built transaxles to take the punishment of the terrain and performance power.
They even have the electric power steering to handle the kickback from the long travel suspension up front.
