Title: Where is FLAUNT IT - Marla Lowry DDS
Post by: guillaume on January 24, 2008, 00:44:34 am
I was looking at my VW photo on my computer and find an old Jeff Denham's photo of "Flaunt It". Flaunt It was an 80's DDS Dynosoars VW race car driven by his daughter Marla Lowry.

We don't know stories of this car. Where it is know? does it still exist?

It was featured in a 80's Hot VWs or VW Trends that I read some month ago at a friend house.

Any stories and photo of this car?

Check out the Deano sign in the background of the first photo. That one hung on the wall at CE for years, after Dean's passing... Gee, I wonder where it is today.  ;D

Mark Reilly sold Flaunt It (atleast what was left of it) to Jim Kurlinski & myself. Jim & I had considered racing the car but, when considering all of the modifications & updates that the car needed, we sold it. I do not remember exactly who bought it but, if I do recall, a street racer from Los Angeles area bought it. If Jim attends the 2008 VW Classic this year, ask him about it.
