Missing about 6" off the bottom of the body, mega arches and a filler cap in an odd place. Do I get the prize?

No, I believe its real. There are other photos around. Has a dry-sumped TDI. IIRC saw a comment somewhere its was built to do the Rubicon trail or somesuch, where clearance above is needed hence the approach to gaining ground clearance. Very impressive work.

Looks weird!

Kinda cool tho.

Maybe take off some of the length from the front and back then you do steeper inclines.
