Does anyone know if someone is selling one? How much do they go for and who makes them in Oz?
Cheers
Raf
there is a guy making them locally raf but he has disappeared for the minute i have tried several times to contact him to get a body but wind up at dead ends .There was a small article in avwm but the editor could not give out his details which i totally understand , even the guys in NZ who were building 550's have closed up shop there moulds were recently for sale if you find him let me know too cheers chris
Was one of te Karmann Ghia importing companies importing chassis/bodies from Brazil into Perth? Rings a little bell in my head...
rsk had a workshop in Hawthorn for years and years , i saw one for sale not long ago. Try Gary at Wolfsberg i think hey may have one or know where
some are.

if you can't succeed, you might be able to take a mold off someone's spyder and then modify it to be an RSK. could be hard to get registered though.
What do they look like? I can't say I have ever heard of a RSK 550 before.
here's a few pics. I like them better than the 550 myself.
Found one that needs resto, only problem is, its in South Africa
They are being imported into Oz from Brazil by Ken Johnsen in Perth WA. His number is 0413 703 003.
I believe that there are two versions available. Both are mid engined.
One with stock Beetle suspension and an aircooled engine and the other with a Subaru engine and gearbox with a De Dion rear suspension.
He brings it to the WA DoVW and it's the "belle of the ball".
damn thats a sexy looking car!
Thanks shaihulud
