Sportscar or Beach Buggy?

Or both?
Here's the 1970 Virgo, a neat little sportscar.

But here it is being quickly converted to a beach buggy.

It was featured in a recent post on "Forgotten Fiberglass" here.......http://www.forgottenfiberglass.com/?p=13665#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed

I have also placed the Forgotten Fiberglass site in the links column. Lots of good reading there.

This particular post caught my attention due to the Ikara detractors rudely referring to that as a beach buggy when it first came out.
