We’ve followed this one for a while, and it’s finally ready to rock! Built by the masterminds at Oddball Kustoms for our friend Tim the Happy Hippie, this is a full GT-R drivetrain and chassis with a VW Thing body swap on top. Rumor has it that this VW Thing GT-R already smoked a GT-R Nismo in a straight line.
As seen on PASMAG's Tuning 365 (Season 3 Episode 10) on REV TV.
