It's not true, isn't it? This car just belongs to Jim. Shame that he had to sell it!

No, it is not Rudy... The new owner asked us not to mention his name at this time.
With Jim's sedan, he sure does have a very special car indeed!

The new owner is a lucky guy. One of the most mechanically sound cars around. However, Jim did not have to sell the car. He made room for a project in the works for quite some time. A 62' rag. I can not wait to see this thing done! Some find it hard to believe he will even take the thing apart.........it is cherry! Casey


P.S. Jim is not on the web. I know where to find him though. He has been know to lurk around large bodies of water. Wink

Good to hear that he wasn't in the need to sell it. It was always one of my favourite DKP cars and I enjoyed the day shooting his car for VW Speed magazine, because I really had enough time to look into detail.

P.S. Jim is not on the web.

Yea, funny. I asked him for his email address if there would be some more questions regarding his car while writing the article and he said: "You have to call me, I don't have an email address." Couldn't believe it at first!  Cheesy

Wow, that is one of my all time favorite cars. It doesn't scream look at me like some cars but it just has a presence. I have pretty much memorized the build of the engine in the HotVWs engine book. Its also the one that got me hooked on gasburners. Who ever bought it is on lucky SOB.
