Don Rountree, one of the pioneers in the fiberglass dune buggy and off road racing craze of the late sixties and seventies passed away in October from the effects of a massive heart attack. Don was the creator of the Sandwinder fiberglass dune buggy body, the originator of the wide eyed Baja Bug kits and one of the most successful desert and closed course off road racers of the era creating the first mid-engined Volkswagen powered off road racers. Don teamed with Malcomb Smith and Bud Feldkamp for successes at Ascot Stadium, the Mint 400 and Parker 400 among others.
