Aragati kit car based on Beetle

Yes.
How on earth did you know that?  I've never heard of it..
I believe they only made very few and Googling for it only produces this one result..

The Aragati is not really a kit car, but a one-off built by Georg Huber in the 1960s. The chassis came from a VW Beetle, the engine was a 60 PS Porsche engine. The car still exists.
