thats what i am saying Kai, they look cool but when u have seen the real deal they look whack, VW did a smash up job of the factory ute
the tray setup looks very similar to the DOVW one, i aint too clued up on the OG ones but they have old school style.

i just think that grey (dovw) one looks spot on! that picture is stuck in my brain now! :bounce
the best thing about something like that compared to any other ute is that you still have a bunch of extra storage at the front where everyone else
has an engine 
i want one!!!!!!

i don't fancy my chances of buyin' one, it'll be a one-off that someone built, but i would love to own something that looked like that,
so in the right circumstances i reckon i'd have a stab at buildin' one
just need the money, tools, parts and a decent donor type 3:thumb

interesting tailgate arrangement behind the cab..... different :thumb
i think a type 3 based ute conversion tends to look better than a beetle based one......the lines fit better....

I recognised the first pic Col put up, because I did that in PhotoPaint about 2 years ago when people were asking about utes last time. Good to see my
old pics still doing the rounds...LOL
As for the others, they're all pretty cool, especially the black Beetle ute. I had a real good look at it at the "Dubs by the Pub" do a
couple years ago and was quite impressed.
Oh, I should mention that mine is technically a ute. Registration says it a "Volkswagen Utility" and it's on commercial rego too. So
legally, it's a good ol' work ute.

golf ute 2.
By the way, the black beetle ute proved to be very expensive to make as the DPT required it to undergo a torsion and beaming test, which it failed the
first time around. Talk to the DPT before you make a ute.
