Hi DONGKG
Nice work! My Father-in-law and I built one and had a great time with it! We took it to a few VW events and it proved very popular (if you take yours to a show be prepared to answer questions). He passed a few years ago and I let her go a bit but I getting ready to go through her and add some more details and possibly repaint her into European theater markings. Here's a few pics of her.

The one above from Englishtown 2007 is real, I think. I remember talking to a guy there that had one bought from a collection in Las Vegas. It was an older and poor restoration. Could be wrong... _________________ 1973 standard, yellow, lowered, 3” narrowed front, 1600 blo-thru turbo w/single dell 15.4@86, so far

You’re correct, it’s real. Very haggard and thrown together but it’s restorable. His ‘information’ board was entertaining though. Sorta like this thread...a good example of a bad example |
