One of the "never shoulda sold it" types. It only had 78 HP, but then it only weighed 1835 pounds, had aftermarket bars and shocks and cornered like a train. Got it went I worked for VWoA and ran it to about 150K. Bought it for $4K in'78 and sold it for $1,200 in '86.
It had acquired some rust (New England weather and thin metal) so maybe it wouldn't have held up anyway. Ya know, you hardly ever see one of those anymore.
