I like the paint, and there are some nice touches, like the Frenched lights, it's been put together very well.

But some crazy Netherlander was clearly schmokin' schomething when they came up with that interior!

Absolute classic 70s/80s 'custom car' interior. hehe There were loads of vans with interiors like this in the US and Oz.

Here's a blogpost-type site with a bunch of crazy van interiors. Given it was done in the 80s, the Merc hot rod doesn't seem so bad now laugh

Love it, probably because it’s a bit like the BMW 635 CSi; another of my all-time favourites

This was on my walk yesterday.
Given the level of patina and surface rust, I think it was modified years ago.

I debated which thread to put it in, but decided that on balance, if I was going to modify a beetle, I'd go the Baja bug route too.

Harsh. It looks like the fast back they should have made.

Looks like a Xantia boot and rear lights not a Rover 400, which I suspect you think it might be.
