              I like it the more I stare at it. I was just saying to someone, it's got a real RS feel to it - more paint, less raw materials, lots of color matching, and the color's a throw in the face to period correctness.

                            Yeah I bought the car in '05 from this weird hippie guy. He was the third owner and using it as a commuter. Theoriginal owner sold it in like the mid nineties. It had 102,000 original miles on the orginal engine and trans and all the paperwork including the receipt from when it was bought new from the dealership in '65 :D. It was so solid, just needed a new section welded into the pan where the battery sits. I spent two years restoring it - frame off resto.

                            link to the build:

                                No offense to r3v, but the VW content on this site is about 1/100 of what's out there.
