Yep this is a legendary car.
Fortunately the Newman VW has been restored to its original setup. Apparently it went to auction and sold for $250,000. Read more about it and its
resto here:

I wonder where it wound up after it sold? Probably just some private collection in the US, but I can always dream that it landed in Australia can't

Call stockers boring if you want, but VW sure sold a lot of them that way
