The front flares on this car look interesting, a bit more rounded, 911 like almost.
Andy has posted this pic a couple of times, does anyone know anything about this car?  |

It would have to be an "old" rabbit as that looks to be a period photo. Rabbit's didn't hit the streets until 75.
Also, steel bumper car with an interesting cow-catcher in front of the oil cooler. Maybe GMS knows a little more about it. |

I think the first car is showing a non invasive oil cooler with no valance. That was how I have seen it done frequently to stay in the non cutting of body class... Just hang it down in front...no valance. Rich |
