Looks to be quite the comprehensive list to say the least. My personal fave was the 1964 Mach 1 or any car using the old Okrasa engine stuff.

That's some good stuff, there. Thanks for sharing.

There is very few Mach1 that's survive until now.
I know one original, one which was never finish has a Mach1  (No engine and not registered has a M1, the one which was at EBI last year) and one rebuilt from original VIN by a friend. In fact, his grandfather sell the original car back in 64-65 and some years later buy it when the owner buy a new one in his garage. The Okrasa engine was used in autocross and the rest of the car demolish. Just the VIN was saved.



I have some more pictures on my laptop if you want.

I have never heard of a Mach 1 VW. Very cool. My friend has a formula vee bug with a turbo 1914 in it.

Got the speedo out of one of these for my '67. It matches the VDO cockpits and has an electric fuel gauge in the center.

Here is some more pictures from Pasco Re pop.
It's not the original car, but Pasco try to makes it as accurate as possible. Upholstery is exactly the same as the original. On this pictures, speedo is still the original and not the 160km/h but since Bad camberg this mistake is corrected. Engine is an Okrasa, oil temp and press are from Koch and VDO.

The M1 of Geoffroy has never been finish as a M1. When D'ietereen, the Belgian importer of VW, makes the Mach1 series, he don't ask VW's leaders  if they can modify VW and still offer the same guaranty. After some time of production, VW leaders ordered D'ietereen to stop producing M1. Some cars which were already on the production lines to be modify, were eventually finish as normal beetle although they already have receive the specific paint jobs, tacho etc. That's still a very rare and interesting Beetle from this period.
I think there was only +/- 180 Mach1.

Outlaw, that is a sweet lookin' late model Formula Vee! Always dug on those '73 and later standard bodies. Good stuff.

the mach 1 was only made in color RUBY RED & JAVA GREEN , and the white stripe was optional

Thanks a bunch, with a few bits and bobs its turned out to be a half decent daily driver.
