hehe, if it's real it's worth over AU$2million so I think she's a replica.

Replicas are better anyway, means you can actually drive it :)

How nice are those beetles in teh background!

Yes it is a kit - a real kit at that! It comes from that same factory in Brazil that makes the Beck Spyder. Watch this space - if I can get through the licensing issues I may be able to offer the kits to other interested parties. It has a VW transaxle and front suspension but other than that most parts are either new hand made or Porsche - eg the 914 engine.

As for nice beetles yes - mine is on the left - Oval with a Judson!

PS - I'll take just a $1 million!

I like it allot. A replica spyder is on my must have in life list.

Congrats on the build, it looks great!
