What a cool OG custom. I wonder if it's still around.
it was also used in the movie "The Hollywood Knights" (good movie, worth a watch if you haven't seen it). iv heard speculation that it's still exists, but never who has it, where it is, or in what condition.
that's one way to make a bug speedster.
in other news, i needed a new car cover and Hot VW's just dropped these as well and sense i picked up the Lightning Bug one a while back i picked this one up to 8-)
I've never seen that before. That's a pretty nifty collector's item.
Pulling wire in the kid's apartment is getting wrapped up. Getting close to inspection.

Interesting wheels & fenders (and ladies :mrgreen: ).
It seems one tailpipe is missing.
And that beacon looks photoshopped to me.
Like placed on the beach in the background.
May be the whole thing is photoshopped...

You're right, I'm not so great at determining AI generated vehicles. The light definitely looks to be off perspective-wise though.
Doing a bit more digging, it seems it was a beach patrol for New Smyrna Beach in FL done for like photo ops and meet & greet stuff. I only found one post about it on a historical FB group.
