prety cool. I like the fact that the buggy is open-wheeled. That lets me know that you could make a nB roadster (like the air-cooled beetle owners do), if they desire to make a kit.

Nope. Check out the suspension on that front wheel. That's an air cooled with a fiberglass body.

The buggy is not actually a NB. It's a shell on top of a standard old Beetle. Some of the items are FROM a NB though , like some of the lights , and windshield.

I've been digging around the internet for info on these for a while now

The Hood is *supposed* to be the same as a NB , but they weren't sure.

Doggit man. If I was to chop up an air-cooled Bug, it would be a roadster/rod conversion.

Here you go... they are made in Brazil.

The pictures you guys have up there at the top are models they don't make any longer. But they have new models!

Up at the top you can choose 4 different models where it says "Modelos".

Apparently a fiberglass shell + window + heater is like $3000.

I want one of the M11's in yellow please

Check out there gallery!

Many spring breaks ago(like 8 years ago) I saw something similar to these:


in Mazatlan, Mexico. They were rental cars, though the ones I saw were watercooled, they had the 2.slow engines up front. Me likey
