Yeps, I like it too. I decided to take advantage of the small window of opportunity to post a German car, before Wendax took it. Apologies to Wendax, it is nice to be able to still find a few of these cars to post.

In fact it is only partly a German car, as this Volkswagen Typ 3 - Porsche 911 mixture was probably built in Japan, as the picture was taken at the Street VW's Jamboree 2008 in Tokyo. The sign in the window says something about "Red Hot" and displays a number that can be interpreted as 915 (or 913).

It dubbed "913". The builder/owner, Red Hot, is the cover art illustrator for StreetVWs magazine. He also owns and wrenches an AMC Pacer and a Corvair.

You can see some of his work here:
