This whole thing (as well as the ride in Phil's Spyder) is making me rethink my great love-affair with the Type 1.
A Subaru 5-speed, not more rare that shards of the true cross (like a Berg-5) and a legit 200 hp engine for considerably less dinero than the attendant air-cooled stuff sounds really, really good right about now... as my own car sits on jack-stands, waiting for parts from Italy and GB to make their way back to my garage.
