Fine automobile. Just a little small for American consumers... anyone over about 5'9" was in for a real shock.

I know that one. Iso Griffo. I thought those were a lot better looking than Aston Martin cars of the same time. They seemed ahead of their time.

Yup. Iso Grifo. I had a bright blue Matchbox of one when I was wee little. I believe there was a real one featured in the movie "Mahogany" back in the 70's.

Just remember, rare doesn't always mean good.

Here's a German example of that: (no it's not a VW)

My Dad used to have this old rare Mitsu wagon van. His had wider after market wheels, but otherwise looked just like this. I LOVED that van. It was fast and powerful, held EVERYTHING, and because it was a mid engine it handled very well.

Eventually it suffered a cracked block and because the van was so rare he couldn't get anyone to work on it for less than a fortune and he sold it for scrap.

Porsche did build a couple of prototype 911 powered VW Buses back in the early 80s. They were used for high speed desert testing, IIRC. They could do 125mph.

I love the AMX prototypes. Dick Teague at his best.

The one I posted is a Porsche B32 Bus. Supposedly they made 11 of them. First was a support vehicle for a Paris-Dakar race around 1984, and Mrs. Porsche enjoyed driving it so they refined it and produced a few more.

3.2L Flat-6
10.3:1 c/r
