Car has won 1st in San Diego PCA Concours in Outlaw Class, featured at many shows including multiple Luftgekuhlt events as well as articles written about it.

I have lots of documentation of the restoration and most receipts and other records for the car including the COA.
Original owner was in the military and bought the car new in Germany. He owned it until his nephew was given the car and proceeded to fully restored it. The 3rd owner upgraded the seats and wheels. I have owned the car for about 11yrs and have gone through the entire car upgrading brakes, rebuilding motor and transmission etc.
