This type is commonly called a "Sandrail". Used for off-road racing.. and often VW (Beetle) flat-4 powered.

The technical base (engine, platform, axles) is from the VW Beetle. Interesting, that there were some real companies, which have produced the special racing-equipment. Usually these chassis were selfmade.

Sometimes the axles and the wheels were taken from a Porsche. In Europe some of these cars were made on base of a NSU. Aircooled engines, sitting in the back were mostly popular.
