I have a picture of IMPI's Fasty above my bed, stare at it every night before I go to sleep

South Africa's very own GermanLook Fastback

Hi all after some hibernation I spent a lot of time on the fastback.
The chassis is rolling now and only the brakes need the final touches. The grey stuff on the pan is a tar torch on coating used for sealing flat concrete roofs. it is very similar to the original tar on the floors which was removed prior to sandblasting. the finish on the pan is 2k black with stone chip on the bottom.

Wow that looks great. Where is that intercooled from. It looks similar to the one in my S4.

That intercooler has arkay cast into it and I know that arkay was a US aftermarket supplier other than that I picked it up at Ferdi's swop meet last year.

The attention to detail on this car is just amazing

Thanks for the pics IMPI, it's about time that people build cars of this calibre here in South Africa

It's looking really awesome, can't wait to see this beast in action

What car is that fuel pump from?Are you no longer using the one from the Colt Bakkie

That pan and all the work looks fantastic, good stuff must run like a dream with all the improvements over the factory item.

Great Work.

Looks Kool and probably gonna be a beast

Hi all due to various reasons I have decided to put my fastback up for sale.

I have seen this car, and can vouch for the quality of the paint, the stance etc etc. This was the car that got me hooked on fastbacks! It really is that good. Trust me, the price is excellent, you won't be able to build something with the same spec for R18k. I would love to buy it, unfortunately I can't afford it at the moment! If anyone here buys it, please give me a ride in it

if this car is still available in a good few months when my bug is done, ill surely consider it, but not right now. one project at a time
