Built in the Land Of The Rising Sun
This very nice Japanese built Looker is the hot property of Mr Kei Hasegawa. This car was built in the mid 90'ies and is based on a '75 bug. Mr Kei felt no need to let the body in stock aperance so some alternations made before the Custard Yellow was applied. To get those wild american racing wheels fitted under the stock wings, the front beam was narrawed a massive 5 inch. The car was then equipped with a hot 1776 unit. Some years ago, Mr Kei was about to rebuild the car and decided to swap the '75 body with a '51 Split Window body. As this isn't a bolt-on conversion, the body recieved its fair amount of alternation before it was painted the same Custard Yellow again. This time the engine is a healthy 2007 unit buitl by One Low in Japan. For more tasty features of this very cool ride, head to your local newsstand and buy the latest issue of Ultra VW.
