Reply to "550 spyder body on vw frame"

Former Member

I'm definately no VW expert in any stretch of the imagination, but anyone here has told me that it is a VW floorpan and when it was imported from New Zealand all the import paper work had it down as a modified 1970 VW Beetle. Graham stopped making them about 2003 when he became ill. He only made approx 38 spyders with about 6 coming to Australia. All the moulds were sold a few years ago, but no one has started reproducing them

Graham McRae was a former Formula 5000 champion (and Indy "Rookie of the Year" in 1973) - I haven't met him myself, but would love to find the history of my car as I believe it is No 3.

I still have registration issues downunder, so I hope whoever is assessing it sees it as a VW!

thanks for your knowledge and advice.
