Technically it was never a VW production vehicle, but it was mass produced and the chassis/ drivetrain are all VW.

The .Org list was having a big debate on that car style (but much better looking). Eric S. had the answer, I forget what. All I know is, in the words of Greg G., it is NOT A PUMA.

I believe it is a late SP2.  The earlier ones had round headlights and I don't have time to look in my VW Museum book right now.

hint #1...

it is aircooled

hint #2...

it started in Brazil in the very late 70's and I doubt it is in the museum book because it is not really a VW...

Right - so the Cadillacs, NSUs, DKWs, Race Cars, etc. that are in the museums in Wolfsburg are production VWs, right?  Please.

Its a Ventura - follows the earlier SP2 lines very closely, though.

Here is an SP2:





IMO, Pumas are the best looking air-cooled car produced.  















I have a soft spot for Manx SRs, though they were just kit cars.
