Photo Feature: 1959 Goggomobil Dart

Buckle, who had previously built a handful of sports cars based on Ford mechanicals, now did the same with the Goggomobil platform. He designed a fiberglass roadster body that seems to have been influenced by the Lotus Eleven race car. The body was molded in upper and lower sections and joined in the middle with a rubber strip to hide the joint. Most lacked doors, although a driver’s-side door was available. A Renault Dauphine rear window was used for the windshield. Being a rear-engined car, the space under the “hood” was for cargo. Buckle named the car Dart.
Edit:

Some nice photos in the link below.
