The Phantom Menace

If you are like me and love cars, which if you are on this page you probably are, then you spend a fair amount of the day looking at craigslist for that rare gem that everyone else misses. Honestly it is an addiction.

Today I came across an add titled “Warehouse full of #barncars.” Yeah, that is getting a look-see.

My search thread was simply “VW” so I was excited to know what they had. Inside there was a list of 11 vehicles ranging from early 90’s Camaros to 40’s Plymouths. Now kids Plymouth was a division of Chrysler and has quite a history… look it up. Back to the #VW. Number 9 was simply listed “1973 VW, Vehicle runs.”

Consider my interest queued up. I HAVE to know what this car is. It could be anything. Logic says if they did not ID it as a #Bug or #Van it could be a Type 3, a Ghia, a Thing, A 411/412… or best yet given the location in Texas maybe some rare thing from south of the border. And i’m not talking TacoBell here Racers. Needless to say I fired off an email and am awaiting with baited breath as the add has only be up a day.

WHAT WILL IT BE… STAY TUNED TO FIND OUT!
