It's a sweet car, and the story behind it is also quite amusing.

much prefer the last pic here, but this first pic is awesome. much better than the whole car in rusty orange - although somehow it does appeal..

in fact - scratch the mole grips - this hasn't been repaired :D this is definately my thing

What he said.

I like the Matt or Satin Black mad max type look but can't stand cosmetic rust.

Each to their own I suppose.

As much as I like it on this one. I do think it looks better on certain old bug's bays and splittys, although I would NEVER do it to my bay.

i dont see the point though they spend all that money fixing rusty door steps replacing floor pans and what ever else rots on a camper and then they do that to it

Didn't the rat look come from American hotrodders and not the VW scene?

Either way, I still think it's cool.
Not in E30s any more :(
