Goblin V2 is Coming!
THE DF GOBLIN
A Kit Car That’s Fast, Fun, and Entirely Yours.
Two Goblin Kits
Goblin V1
Turning Chevy Cobalts into mid-engine, open-wheel cars since 2015.
Goblin V2
The next generation of our kit car, built using the Mk7 Volkswagen Golf.
The Kit Car Equation
Start with a donor car, strip out the essentials, and combine it with our expertly designed Goblin kit. The result? A lightweight, high-performance machine that you built from the ground up.
Designed to be Built
The thrill starts long before you hit the road, with a build process designed for car enthusiasts of all skill levels. No special tools required, no overwhelming technical skills needed—just you, your garage, and the journey of turning a kit into something you built, piece by piece.
