I like it, love the air scoop on the roof and the rear lights. I think the Darkside is reborn!

Hi
That's my rat ..
Built her in 2013 .. Sold her late in 2013 ... But sadly the dude who bought her trashed the gearbox within a month
Idiot thought it was a race car...
Check out my build on here somewhere I documented the build..
I've been out of the aircooled world for a while been cycling
But a serious cycling accident had me crush a hip in October and needed a hip replacement ..
I've sold my bicycles and tomorrow and tokeep me sane
I have decided to go back to the vw building hobby..
Tomorrow I take on my next Baja project ..
I can't walk yet but will document the build on this forum again ..
Will start tomorrow with a donor vehicle intro ..
Prob begin the work in 4 weeks when I'm able to walk crutch free again ...

I've seen a similar matt black baja buggy in Mellville a few times over the last couple of days. Also spotted another baja in northern Jhb this week. Are baja buggies making a comeback?
