Deano Weaver? His chop top is another ex-KS chop - Flat Attack IIRC!

Likewise, and a huge inspiration to me - my chopped gasser was one of the next ones, out in primer in 2000 and paint in 2001.

I had two roof-chopped Beetles, which seemed excessive (the other chop-top was the ex-=Keith Goss car).

I'd done what I set out to do, which was to build a gasser replica – for me, the journey is often more fun than the destination!

Ok fair explanation.
Liked it very much when it appeared in volksworld, especially the paint scheme.

Like a lot of things in life, that looks great from the rear showing a little of its inner workings ;)

Great photo Streetvw - the angle of the shot shows off the lines really well!
