It was sold on Sunday at Mecum Monterey auction for $175,000, close to $200k all in with fee's and tax. One of three in that configuration, 4 cylinder and slower than a VW with all that weight, but hey.
Nice rig ... amazing what some can do when "repurposing" a vehicle. Here's my latest creation, starting out as a lowly Transit cargo van.
Started out as a wheel chair van after my accident and worked it's way up from there once I realized I could fit a lot of camper stuff in there, including a six foot bed ... Hardest part was finding someone to pop the roof on - any "reputable" body shop would wring their hands going on about liability issues. Finally found a friend of a friend of a friend who does custom race cars, and said ... hey, never done that ... sounds like fun!
The only problem w/the Porsche powered Wunderwagen is Could you/would you use it ? My luck, I'd get it out next Sunday in Greater Bugtussle, & get absolutely CREAMED by a '79 Ford Cuntree Squar.., or a '82 Chevy 3/4 tonne 4X4 Urbanizer.. Billy Joe Tom-Bob 'n' Poovie Mae would be P!ssed cuz you Tore Up there Kuntree Squar...The Urbaniizer was under the shade tree at home where BJTB was putting a Rebuilt Water Pump on it...
