Hi
The SP had a tuned motor, thats where Kadrons and SP cams came from.
We have club member that wrote a couple of stories about South Amercan VWs.

Those headlamps are called after the fellow who designed them....
They were used on the 412s and many prototypes....
They made many Variants in Brazil....
They made a Beetle engined car that looked like a small
type 3..... I always wanted one....
but the last time I saw one [on the net] it was all rusty etc... it was called the Brasilia...
so, VWs aren't treasured in Brazil.....
they are like Commodores..... LOL
same in Mexico.....

Yes I saw the Puma at the Nationals years ago...
Here is a pic of the Brasilia...
Front of a 412... same headlamps.... again
rear like type 3 variant...
Now they would have sold in Australia
... sold over a Million in South America and African countries...
This must be a South Africian model as its Right Hand Drive
made from 1973-1982...
