This guy bought the car already cut up and Baja'd.

A guy near me has a lifted Type 2 that he takes off-road. We've been
trying to get a chance to take his bus and my car out on the trails.

That is a weld-in roof/window panel job.
Not to uncommon.

Not yet. Gotta go pull it in the garage and see where the oil's coming
from. I did spend a couple of hours on the trails after lifting the back
of the car like that.

Good thing that puppy's been neutered.

At least it's an early body on a newer pan .......

Honest, I don't think it is. I looked it over very well. An older (and
very deaf) chassis builder and former racer had it. He also has a VW
graveyard, and semi trailers full of parts. All that hidden in rural
Wisconsin not far from here. It kind of looks fake but that's a
consequence of the lousy digital camera (Apple QuickTake - remember
'em?) and the plastic scoop.

What surprised me at first was how tiny the carb was. "Better low end
and that's where it's at and there's rules, ya know." he said.
