Vw Australia made an in house car of a similar style. Project was cancelled with development of the Thing.
It's called a Country Buggy. My dad has one. Great clearance and low ratio box makes it unstoppable

If I could find a 597 or country buggy I could afford I'd be all over it. Even cooler than a 181!

There was a country buggy at the VOLKSFEST in Nashville last month. IIRC the guy said there were only 8 in the US. Maybe only 800 ever made. This one is Right Hand drive.
