I made the trip to see it today... Just got back (almost 200mi roundtrip)...

Yeah, it appears real... Got the bump on the hood, the separate hood, no dash (replaced by some aluminum diamond plate, tag is missing from over the tunnel, has the fiberglass tubes running the length of each side of the body (possibly enclosing plastic tubing, and not cardboard). Slight hack job above the rear center (air cleaner location). Left-front drive light post has been re-glassed (poorly). Butchered beneath the rear seat, on both sides.

Some nicks and holes here and there. Originally a yellow gelcoat, then painted purple, now it's in gray primer. The VW chassis is # 1122783345 (1969 IRS, no?) Chassis is out of the system in CA. No engine, but it does have the tranny attached.

The owner, Juan, says that he has a buyer coming in from Las Vegas on Saturday a.m. I passed on it, since it is a full-on restoration. He's even willing to store it right where it is for $35/mo. Nice enough guy, who had the Manx left to him by a neighbor. Since he's only interested in Chevy's this one is of no use to him.

Good luck to whoever claims it...
