Ep 132 The ultimate fast back Steve Noll Jul 16, 2021

Show notes

While in Sacramento for the Bugorama. I ran into Steve Noll. Talk about a guy who's crazy about his fastback. How about a 200+ page on the samba for the build that started in 2014 till 2021. The set up is more than just a 912E transaxle, 2056 Type 4 or Custom Berts billet spindles. This is a tale of massive obsessive compulsive building. If you get a chance to see this car in person, it's a crazy build.
