May not be everyones idea of the perfect rod, but this is one seriously sweet rod. Built by a team of folks under the direction of an old hot rod builder, & a damn ingenious one at that.
$13K takes her home

I HATE bein poor, damnit! :P
Looks like a lot of car for the money. Some excellent work on the car.
It's a whole lot of car for the money! Look at the quality of work that went into building it & how much of it is actual hand fabricated, 13K is less than reasonable.
I think the only reason he doesnt ask for more is people have a problem forkin over that much for a VW,...

I had spoke to the original owner and one of the builders about a year and a half ago.... when he was selling it. He was a very nice guy and very honest. I was very interisted in buying it. It's a awsum looking little hotrod, and I really liked their designing and proportioning of it. But he said that it really was'nt pratical for any distance. It was very uncomfortable, noisey, ruff rideing, and hot.
But it did look good.
And I don't alway's belive in being pratical....... where's the fun in that!!!!
thats kinda what i was thinking that it would b hot, etc... i cant believe they put no type of air flow system, i cant see spending that kind of money on something i cant really drive...id be interested once the price comes down....very kewl look thats for sure...nice job guys.....
