is it vw or renault
looks like something from a hiphop video /cringe
is it original or a replica?
not a fan, but whatever rocks your boat i guess
Some of the photoshopping is good but some is too much of a give-away.
The reflection isn't reverrsed and it says STRAP ON not Snap On
Looks like a beetle / renault / Bugeye sprite with the lights....
Using a VW beam in the front by the look of it.
Kinda funky but can stay in the show room for my liking.
Yeah good job on the photoshop Matt. Even down to the pinstriping. Need to find out what it is....Citroen, Renault? Nice buggy out the back too....
Look like a prototype 3, one of the first protos made in 1935, before the type 30 of 1937, of which all 30 were destroyed after testing.
If thats original that's unreal, if its not, its still unreal.
weird 
id love that in egg shell black, nice...
Here's the 1937 prototype VW.
Proto 3 1935
That's the one. Beat me to it in your search!
is there a kit out there u can buy?
I've got a funny feeling this one was coachbuilt by volkswagen for their museum ? could be wrong but I think it was in VW trends a coupla years back
wot tha!
yeah, saw a while back a company over seas is making replicas, that is the first prototype i think. based on original designs and photos.
would turn a few heads wouldnt it ?
From memory Vw comissioned this to be built in 2001 as all of the other prototypes were distroyed back in the day. They had a hole missing in the
evolution of the beetle so they had this build but a coach builder, all they had was a few photos of the original cars. The bonnet screw downs were
even reproduced. The paint colour was a total mistry as there was no records of it either and all they had was black and white photos to go on.
nIck
That looks crazy.
Mr Bubble Head got it in one, that's the replica Prototype that now resides in the Wolfsburg Museum, cost VW a clean fortune to get it made. It made
a special appearance in March at the Volksworld Show in England.
Looks damn cool with the wheels and pinstripes though, pity there's no kit available... then again maybe it's just as well

I like it with the bog wheels. something out of the "Monsters" or the "Adams" TV show.
