What is your all time favourite VW?

Post by Tony Z »

OK Guys
As the title says, what is your all time favourite aircooled VW?

My all time favourite is a Remmele built car from ages ago.
The car is no longer the same colour (I think it is blue now), but the engine cover remains at Remmele in his engine building workshop, on the wall.

I have the Volksworld article on this car, but cant find any others online

Very close in #2 is another Remmelle car, his 291hp N/A 3.1 liter T4 Project from 2007

For Ron&Gill

My most inspirational VW: Velocirazor

Joe Gallagher is the owner/builder. The gold T34 next to his is his
wife's. Velocirazor was built out of left over bits from the build of
the 34 Karat Gold.
