Dellortes carb No vacuum on distributor Cheers

Hi Mike Wheel diameter is 16.5 inches Tyre diameter is 30 inches, width 9.5 inches Cheers

Tyres are Yokohoma ''Mud Diggers'' The shocks do extend over the tyres i think. Cheers

The motor I am certain is 1600cc going by the engine markings. I don't know what a twinport is but it has i think 2 ?dellores carbs. About the extended shock towers, again i am unclear as I am not familiar with the same. Maybe the pics in myfirst post will help to ascertain this. Thanks

Initially they had 2litre vw engines.

Actually the dimensions are almost identical to a Chenowth! The length of this vehicle is about 13 feet, width 6 ft and ht 6 ft. Compare this to the chenowths dimensions which are length 13.3 ft, with 6.9 ft, and ht 6.9 ft http://www.militaryfactory.com/armor/detail.asp?armor_id=82 Also compare a pic of an original chenowth (first pic below to my vehicle 2nd pic). They appear uncannily similar! Though the pedal box (cnc) appears identical to the british wessex saker lsv. Hence am so confused about what this is.

Thanks!

, HI, need help inidentifying this vehicle![/size][/font][/color]I recently purchasedthis offroad vehicle on ebay in the UK. On closer inspectionit seems like some sort of military light strike vehicle or desert patrolvehicle or maybe a ?replica. The chassis closely resembles a chenowth but thisis rhd. It is powered by aaircooled vw engine and though the reg document says is is 1300cc the enginemarkings engine number indicate it to be a 1600cc engine!! Oil cooler Dry sump Provision to add 3shock absorbers each side on the rear vw running gear Yokohama mud diggertyres cnc marked pedals Is it just a dune buggy or something else? Many thanks
