Jay, a ghia nose would be perfect for that
Dennis, inspirational as always. A couple of years ago we chatted about you mocking up a trailer made from a Typ1 Ghia rear end. I’m getting close to the project, but haven’t come up with a good treatment for the front. Currently it’s just squared off at the rear doorjamb…..

Hey there My friend, I love all the drawings and especially the “Heb - Look” concept cars!
Who does these? Is it you? And would you do a follow - up concept drawing for a fee?
If so, just shot me an E-Mail. I’ve got a ‘67 bug in Makati, and I’d like to have an “authentic” 67 Heb drawing ……… your people obviously have the talent and the attitude!
Yeeaahhhhhhhhh!
Hope to hear from you!

Hi. I’m a wedding planner looking for an old Beetle that my client can rent as her bridal car. Please advise if you know where my client can rent one for her Dec. 27 wedding. Thanks!
Man how come I’ve just discovered that a site such as this one exists? I like the hoodride mission statement. Keep it up brother!
cool pictures
Congratulations, you’ve just completed the installation of this shoutbox.
im glad to discover this lab for new VW concepts. cheers to Dennis the scientist.
If given the opportunity, this is what I would have done.
Don’t get me wrong, I love what Thomas did with the bug. It’s just, if it were me, I would have taken this truck to another level.
Volkswagen Concept: Teracotta Slamma builds on the great foundation of the Terracotta Truck and applies my own design cues to interpret the design into something my own.
First off, the things gotta be slammed! Stock is good but this VW’s attitude is a lot meaner, more purposeful. Another big change is the meatier meats on body colored Gas Burner rims to replace the wide 5 rims and ‘caps.
For me, the big change is in the body itself, We start off with a little off the top. A 3 inch top chop and matching “shorty” ragtop makes for a prettier profile. Instead of using flat sheet metal to define the pickup portion of the truck, I opted to use, pieces from another VW icon, the Type2, particluarly the corner windows, jail bars and the side intake vents. The re-design makes the truck look that much more in the 60’s VW design language.
A strong 1835, dual Weber fed, bullet-proof Type 1 handles the load quite well. A Narrowed KP/LP front end tucks the front wheels nicely into the early fenders, while a couple o clicks in the rear make the stance simply tasty.
