i know the colour is an aquired taste! it came off an old german paint chart think they used it on tractors or somthing agricultural,the idea was to build a retro looking truck it goes down well with vw enthusiasts it took 15 trophies the first year i showed it all first place + a few best in show although i show it it still gets driven hard esp now with the valver in it.

Looks rather cool ride that. colour has grown on me as well.

[ol' dirty]

you know you will get better fuel consumption & less drag if you put the proper tailgate back on...was watching it on MythBusters



and judging by the twin 40's you probably dont give a shit











Nice car mate & I love the colour- Ignore the naysayers!

I used to have a matchbox mini in that colour & always promised myself I would paint a car the same,

[freerider07]

tailgates on mate thats an old pic the og one was nacked picked one up off the bay for £19 needed some work looks good now they fetch big bucks in good cond.theres a pic on this thread with the tailgate on.

Love the empty engine bay look! Did it actually run like this or is this just a part-build photo?
