THE DISCIPLE
Infamous from its completion, this car was the marmite of the VW world for a while back in early '08, when it was debuted by the custom car builder Scott Marsden of SRS. Scott has put together something which is unique in its juxtoposition of styles. He sold the car soon after completing it and so it is currently in someone elses sweaty palms (especially sweaty if they plant their foot down the way this car begs you to!)
Heres some of the spec and chat from Scott.
