His goal was to enter it in local car shows and, so far, he’s won four trophy’s with it. Nice work!

Fiberglass Jeep-looking Body for VW Chassis

Jason posted these pics of a jeep-looking fiberglass body with some unique aspects to Facebook. The hood is lower than usual vis-a-vis the fenders, the rear fender wells have a flare modeling into it, the rear mid-section looks slightly longer, it has a step with a runner along the entire side, and the rear has a unique flare on the back. Also, it is interesting that the top edge around the back is about as thick as a Bobcat or Parkette body.

According the discussion on Facebook, “I was told by the owner there was a local guy he in nh that was big into fiberglass I guess he also built cobra body’s and he made a few of these.” I suspect there aren’t many of these around.

UPDATE Jan 18, 2013:  I found a second brochure that identifies this as a Sandman GPV

Has anyone ever heard of this Volkswagen/jeep model?  It doesn’t seem to be a VEEP.  Other searches yielded nothing about this unusual rig.

1979 VEEP Union Gap, WA **Sold**

UPDATE: **Sold** was $5500. I initially thought this was a Scamp, but we have confirmation it is a VEEP.

(02/25/2023) Listed as a VEEP, I thought this was a SCAMP based on the front grille design with the recessed lights.
