Its called proper engineering and weight distribution. Its amazing what you can do with vehicles that have actually been built correctly

Yeah man. Exactly! You found some good old rally pics.

The bottom pic is amazing as well.

The T4/T5 Truck class was always my favorite watching the Paris-Dakar Rally. They are truly Bad

It has many names. So the simplest answer for you is;
T3 Syncro Double Cab, or Doka (Think Vanagon chasis with a truck body)

More technical answer;
Volkswagen Type 2 (T3 (aka T25)) Transporter DoubleCab Syncro (Rally Race prepped)

Syncro = all wheel drive

Doka = double or twin cab, derived from German word Doppelkabine

My guess is that one is late 80’s. They were never officially sold in the US, but they have a huge cult like following. I saw one go for $40,000 last month and have seen them go for almost $90,000 for a Syncro Vanagon.
They are amazing vehicles, and I love watching the old rally versions in action.
Here is a concept car picture

Here is a good basic lowdown.

Even more history on the Syncro in general.

Probably more VW than you ever wanted to know.

sorry I really like them.

I guess you do! Were you drooling the whole time you were writing?

Thanks for the (incredibly) in-depth response. I may win some brownie points with you if I tell you I want my next Toy project to be a TDI conversion in my 85...huh, huh, huh?

You are welcome.

I actually was drooling, and the more I started reading the more I would get involved about learning more about them the more i forgot to respond.

I like that project idea.
