From the max power era, described as a show car but do shows for this sort of thing even exist?



I can never understand replacing the rear seats with speakers...

I don’t think the three little speakers were really necessary...

Turn the music up and it’ll probably open by itself!

Wouldn't say that's badly modified but in the description it's 'turbo' everything but no turbo engine..

They're tweeters so yes, they're necessary, it's an SPL competition car, so everything in it has one purpose, to get maximum sound pressure level while maintaining a level of audible clarity, hence the mids and tweeters in amongst the subs. As for getting out there will be a button release with a door popper somewhere.

"Pink Lady" built by the Swedish guy who did paint and body at Boyd Coddingtons.

Very famous car from 80's in the VDub scene in the states.

Not sure if links to facebook are allowed (apologies if not), but this car was a major trophy hauler and recognised as one of the best custom VWs ever made.
