Hey,

Very odd looking thingo!

This was the "Locomotive" of the VW factory guest train. Dated 1954. So if you went for a tour of the factory this was the puppy that pulled it all along.

65busser ·

Powered by a beetle motor and it's the only one.

Anthiron ·

Starbug ·

why only 17k? it should be going for heaps more than that seeing as its history and all

pete wood ·

the most expensive beetle powered gizmo in the world, imagine someone buying it so they could use the motor for a bush basher, I bet there'd be one idiot who try. 😀 LOL
