Thanks for sharing the pictures, I really dig this car. Always wondered about the name...
Whoever will be the owner in the future, hopefully he'll have the guts to bing it back on the track!

I am the son in law Of Tim Goodrich who was the builder of Frog Guts and raced it. If you google search his name you will see who he is in the auto restoration world .... mostly renowned for Porsche restoration. The car was purchased by a gentleman who has done a lot of business with Tim over the years. This purchase was made just recently and the car was shipped back to Tim for restoration..... 41 years later. Lots to the story but you get it. Cosmic if you ask me. I'll try to send a current photo when I can if anyone is interested. Hank gergen23@gmail.com |

Yes the car has been sent back to the states (home) to be reunited with Tim, a truly fantastic story that this car travels from CA to Scotland, then on to Belgium to be raced again, re-purchased via Houston and shipped back via Southampton to CA and then up to Oregon as a present....
what's better it will now sit next to Tim's beach buggy which when he raced it against the original IP1 with Dean driving he beat it......... truly an amazing and true story.
This is why VW Gasser Garage brings gassers back to life (or to the track), so we can all enjoy and find out more about them.
