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 I. :rolleyes:



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

I knew it was here, but the owner was trying to keep it on the down-low last time I heard, I was just trying to be subtle :lol:
