Raupen Fuchs Half Track VW Type 2 T1 Minibus

I stumbled across this unusual Volkswagen Type 2 T1 microbus while browsing through old books at the Seattle Public library earlier today. Apparently the German firm Raupen Fuchs created it as a prototype in the 1960s intending to sell these for use in sand/snow. It appears that it survives to this day. Pretty cool if you ask me!
