It features a V6, some modern Audi body parts, and what looks like a whole lot of fun for approximately $4,600

This is a 1996 Audi A6 but you’d never know that by looking at it. After a great deal of cutting, welding, and frankensteining the result is an exocar that blends Audi’s past and what would be the future in 1996. It’s priced at approximately $4,600 but there’s one big catch that includes an ocean and what could be more money in shipping costs.
Right off the bat, we should say that the car is located in Poland so bringing it stateside has its challenges. Could it be worth it to have this wacky and relatively inexpensive dirt toy? We’ll let you be the judge of that after we tell you about what we know about it.
The builder of this car chronicled the experience on their YouTube channel and to be clear, the changes are extensive but mostly skin-deep. Bone deep might be a better phrase though as the vast majority of the frame and body is now made up of welded tube steel.

What’s not different appears to be the drivetrain. If it’s still stock, and it appears to be based on the videos, the car is powered by a 2.8-liter naturally aspirated V6. There’s no way to be sure about how much power it makes but in 1996 Audi said the A6 made 171 hp (127 kW). That might not sound like a lot of power but this car is bound to be significantly lighter than it was originally.
The fun quotient goes up when we talk about the rest of the drivetrain too. However much power it does make goes through a five-speed manual transmission and then to all four wheels. Video of the car speeding around dirt roads harkens back to the famous days of Audi dominating rally racing.
Modern Audi is represented too with a late-model front and rear bumper treatment that somehow works really well on this older chassis. The seller is asking 19,900 Polish Zloty for the car or about $4,600 USD. Wherever one is on the planet that seems like a boatload of fun for that kind of cash.
