Really, that's pretty cool...

It would be nice to see the close up details, but it sure looks like he did a decent job grafting the quad front end onto the Bandit frame.

Quads were never really my favourite, but this one is still pretty cool.

For posterity's sake - since the Craigslist ad won't last forever...







Seems pretty well done, as far as a small, distant pic can show.  Like Paul says, be nice to see more detail.

OTOH, for a sand rig, it seems it would be a little tall.  I've seen sand quads before with liter-bike motors shoehorned into quad frames.  Also in custom made sand drag frames that are long and low.  Still, it seems Banshee's are the most popular choice for sand dragging.
