I've just realised the pics of the Volkhart on display are from the same event & I missed it!

I appreciate it for the Superbeetle windshield and the side windows opened up to the doorline. It really lightens the top, which naturally has a lot of crown.

Fitting that fender skirt, though, would require the massive negative camber the kids like these days. Not a big fan of that, but I like the skirt.

A Porsche so rare, even Google hadn't heard of it
The 911 HLS resurfaces after being forgotten for 40 years.
Not even Google has heard of the Porsche 911 HLS







It looks like a Saab to me.

My grandmother about to take the old Ford out for a spin. As the story goes, the wheels turned backwards whenever she came to a stop because the brake bands were shot and she would use reverse for that all the time.

Agreed, looks like a Sonnet to me. It looks like a fiberglass aftermarket body made for the porsche...and a copy of the Sonnett (although it clearly appears to be metal). Not sure I would invest anything in this if I had it.
