Congratulations Russell, hear you'll be taking this one back across the pond too!
Sad to see it go, but glad it will be in good hands.

Russell I agree, but out of interest is this the original car or a repo?

It was great to see this car in person! Superb job all around. Thanks so much for bringing it back to the States for its re-debut! I must have stared at it for at least an hour!

Russell,

I am certain that every guy in his late 50's or older, who saw the BABE in the early days, had a renewal and reconnection with their roots in the hobby when seeing the car.  You and your team did a superb job on the restoration and you are to be commended.  Thanks for helping keep the memory of the early years alive with all your hard work.  I am certain there are hundreds of old school VW guys that the unveiling of the BABE touched deeply.
