 Except, it's real!      Looks good don't it? What a shame it's powered by a wheezy stock 1200 motor. It's not.  If only there was a build thread somewhere. There is. |

That's awesome. The use of a Superbug bonnet as a bootlid is inspired. And using quarter-elliptical springs on the rear is very interesting.  I'm also kind of surprised that he bothered to keep the opening doors. It's so low that you could easily step into it without doors, and there's no roof. I love it so much that I would daily drive it without a roof! |

I'm not usually a fan of volksrods, but that works really well in my opinion. Defo agree the use of the super beetle bonnet works really well. Phwoar. Also that steering wheel is probably worth more than the car! I may be wrong, but at a guess I'd say it's probably a repro. Much cheaper (retail at about £240 over here). |

At every stage of your post, I felt both annoyed at your fibs and overjoyed by the awesomeness of the car. I f*cking love volksrod's!

i do like the rear sus setup, basically lifted straight off a mk2 jag. i fancy putting something together with a setup like that, looks really cool.
the rest of its not bad either, if a bit all over the place. id like it twice as much if the front quarters hadnt been cut out. some things i love somethings i cant stand. one day i might get round to building up a volksrod for myself......ive got half the parts stashed away!

Volks ain't my bag.
Rods ain't my bag.
But the detailing and execution are faultless.
