Thanks for reminding me about that site! Not been there for quite a while.

Didn't Luke at Terry's Beetle Services build a replica that was at the Volksworld show about 5 years or so ago ?

There's a gripping account of it by one of the drivers Alfonso de Hohenloe, in Dan Post's excellent book "Volkswagen - nine lives later"

There's a couple of other photos too.

I took my carrera replica to Bug-Run Mantorp Sweden this weekend....1450 km with no problems.
Found this photo on fellow norwegians website...the Sechs Volt vw gang.
Check out their site:
