Here are more pics Courtesy of Lenny Copp... 
"Right out of the pages of Hot VW March 1985!! This car has been in storage for over 20 years. It's a time capsule from the 80's. This car had over 100 trophies!! It was a custom that anyone would remember seeing in the magazine and at all the shows of that era. This is a 12.5 second car with the 2084cc Engine with 48 Webbers. Just as it was then.

Peach, pink, turquoise, lavender and pastels were all the norm back then. This dude Tim back in in High school had a light pink ragtop on 5 spokes and temps and baby turbos shaved with no decklid.
