Forget Schadenfriday: Modded VW 1500 Rules The Divine!!

First of all, YES!!!! Second, just yesterday we were listening to comrade Scott kvetch about not wanting to paint his Type III black. How about black with a white roof we said. Yes, that's a factory option Scott replied, but he'd look like the fuzz. After we ran through all the OEM colors and Scott explained how red is the ultimate midlife crisis color for a Type III (which we still don't get), we suggested that since the car has such a unique front end a two-tone paint scheme is the way to go. Scott glared as if we just denied Volkswagen helped out with the Holocaust. Well, eat this Scott! Orange skunk stripes on a pewter body. Though gray is probably a factory color. And the orange Le Mans-ish lines most likely came free with a Hazet or something. Either way, we're sure Scott is thumbing his eyes out. Go ahead and jump for a few more pics.

Yeah... Hell yeah!
