"restore the car to his former glory".........?
Former glory of what? You guys make it sound as if the way the original owner customized it was the ONLY way it could be customized. If it was such a great car, why didn't the original owner keep it the way it was? Why didn't he keep it at all for that matter? You can't possibly think the next owner has the EXACT same taste, and won't change anything on the car, do you? To each their own. I see things I like about the car, and I see things I don't like about the car. Like Mom always said, if you don't having anything nice to say, why say anything at all.
mg:
First time I saw it at OCIR brand new in black with a long fix it ticket on the windshield with several violations.
No wipers, no bumpers, no turn signals and others?
It was built/owned by a relative of a long time VW event promoter and body shop owner in So Cal.
My one regret back in 1989, this car and my pink drag bug were on display at a small show in Costa Mesa.
The black chop was then owned by Dyno Don.
He offered to trade it for my drag bug, I should of took that trade.
Now in white that So Cal moment seems to have been obliterated.
White thunder? why not call it Loud Lightning? lol

I have a flyer from the Al Martinez swap meet many decades ago with the car on it...very cool.
