It belongs to good mate of mine, it took so long to build he ended up unveiling it at Volksworld Show 2 years late !

But it won Best in Show so it was worth the effort 🙂

My old crew cab, sadly no longer mine. I had a convertible Ghia many years ago too.

T2 camper for me. With a scoob engine in it just to upset people

Trust me you really don't. I have one and upsetting boy racers IS hilarious. However throwing thousand after thousand in to it gets old quickly...

Personally if money was no object than a Bader Racing Kahmann Ghia 993 RS

Pff, don't rain on my daft fantasy. In the real world I'd buy a Transit probably, but no scene points for that.

wish I had a trekker

I have thought about buying air cooled vw's, but always had the reliability issue in the back of my mind
