Is supposed to look like that?!? 101/264

« on: April 21, 2015, 04:37:25 AM »
Well I did it.

I bought a clown car. Many of you have seen some of my odd vw selections. This has been on my list for a while now.

Number 101/264. Painted all yellow at some point in its life.

If you don't know yet it's a harlequin. Vw made 264 total in 96 as a promotional item. They had a special seat fabric and different colored bolt on panels.

Mine is a yellow base meaning the unibody is painted yellow and all the panels that bolt to it are either red green or blue.  You could have had a base color in any of those 4 colors.

On with the pictures.
As I got it




Stripped and repainted the base




Red panels (you can't see the front fenders but they are red.



Blue panels








Green panels







What it should look like roughly when I'm done.



Building a 24v vr6 for it. Nothing too crazy other than that. Just a rebuild and slight update.

Motor and trans are resting.

I knew it was a one year only limited edition, but I never knew the edition was THAT limited!  Glad to see you put it back right!   8)
