Today I was invited for a guided tour in a vocational school in the #Stuttgart area. They had a lot of Mercedes-Benzes and Audis and even Porsches (including an insane 911 GT3 race car) that are used for the practical training of apprentice automotive technicians.

This car here however was my absolute favourite. 🤩

Look at that, what a beauty! 😍

From what I can tell, this is a beautifully restored 1965 model (larger windows but still has the small light housing on the engine lid).

And note the license plate: It ends with an “E”, indicating the flat-four “boxer” engine was replaced with a modern electric drive.

I've replaced this mirror/light three times over the years, and each new reproduction part seems to be a bad copy of the last copy. Out of the box, the parts don't even snap together. Admittedly, it was a crappy design to begin with. I am tempted to get out my soldering iron and make it more reliable.

#Volkswagen #T2 #Pritsche #pickup (Mid-1970s), now retired on the Greek island #Evia #Euboea. The chassis is in reasonably good shape with mostly minor rust issues, making this car a great candidate for restoration. 🥰

If you were going to build the best air-cooled Beetle that you could build, how would you do it?

Engine, suspension, interior, mild to wild - and why!
