It's a Hamann conversion, I lifted it from another forum. It was parked up in Grosvenor Square in London ( very expensive area). I'm afraid I have no details on it other than that. It is rather awesome though  |

Think I messed up my pants I've had an idea in back of my head for the while and this sure as hell complicates the colour choice..   |

Nice pics, Tero... reminded me of the old days of selling 9's and 11's and turbo flairs at Sierra Porsche back in the '70's   |

Orange, Porsche, and some alloys (finally) done correctly.
What's not to like?

It is rather awesome though It was for sale earlier this year at Prestige in Mayfair and made it into most of the broad-sheet cars for sale pages. It was for sale for £200K, I seem to remember. The 599 has a 612BHP 6.0 V12. Nice. Not keen on the back though:  |

Hey Keith,what's that with that exaust?
Take off the caps and I could run open, unsilenced pipes. With them on, the single tailpipe to the side was used, with 'full' silencing. Needless to say, I just used to run it on open pipes most of the time! |

Well, it's a VW but not Cal Look VW so no place in cool photos thread Got our 'Vert passed the technical inspection today (MOT for Brits, probably something nobody in US has to worry about?) in 2nd attempt, last inspection was 2001, teared into pieces in 2003 for pan off resto. Now almost complete and soon I can think about finding a prospect for proper Cal Look car..  |

Really like that 'Vert, Tero. Looks Cal Look enough to me. Unless you're joking. We don't have M.O.T. but some states require a vehicle inspection to some degree. Mostly the eastern portion of the country. If we ever had those in California, most of the cars would be taken off of the road. HAHA!!
So, you're selling this car to build something more traditional regarding Cal Look, yes? What do you have in mind?

Stock 30hp so won't be Cal Look. I do like Resto Cal as much as Cal Look. I raised the suspension for the inspection, so it'll sit lower and yes ( ) with fully polished Fuchs, chromed if I manage to buy certain set. Lots of stuff to do still, like new interior. So, you're selling this car to build something more traditional regarding Cal Look, yes? What do you have in mind?[/b]
What I have in my mind has been two words for a while "'67" and "LEMNADE" (if I remember the license plate correctly). There are other inspirational later 70's or early 80's cars too I am letting go of 'Vert some time but I'll keep it along the project so I can enjoy driving something in the meanwhile. |

When my wife and I went for a weekend @ the sea,we saw this "BIG" car. I found out it's an Italian Autobianchi (from the early '60s ?) Would look great with a "flatfour" and erco's I think. |
