Saw it on The Samba. I don`t know the guy but the price is very good for this car. It`s not on the super detailed pan Daniel built and his ad fails to mention all the custom metal work Daniel put into this thing. if i had the room and money i would buy it right now.

Really good price on this. You could not build what he has for $2,500 unless you know how to do a roof like this. Even then you are looking at several hundred hours to do the chop. It is a clone of my street car. Would love to have it.

There are so many little details he did to it you would probably never even notice. Remember that Hot VW`s article about filling in the dash heater vents? I`m pretty sure he was the inspiration for that. And Zach... he sold the pan to another Lounge member who still has it.

Actually no. I never saw Daniel's car in person, or any decent photos of the body. I've wanted to shave the dash vents for years, and Buddy Hale was able to do it back in 2006... Hood's floorpan was unreal...
