exhaust MotoeXotica Classic Cars rarely says "one of a kind", but
there just can't be another 1969 Volkswagen Double Cab pickup like
this one! This car was named "Rusty Dub Garage", and it is the
epitome of the Rat Rod VW truck culture! A rat rod is a style of
hot rod or custom car that in most cases, imitates or exaggerates
the early hot rods of the 1940s, 1950s, and early-1960s. The style
is not to be confused with the somewhat closely related
"traditional" hot rod, which is an accurate re-creation or
period-correct restoration of a hot rod from the same era. Finished
in media blasted and acid wash Patina, this pickup shows exactly
how you would expect a rat rod too. To break-up the patina finish
there is a elaborate period mint green and tan pinstripe treatment
by one of the most renowned painters around, "SickBoss" himself!
The headlights and turn-signals blend well with the exterior. The
tail lights and back-up lights are flush with the rear valance and
in good condition. The rear engine cover has been removed to expose
the beautiful 1.6 liter flat 4 cylinder. The safari style roof rack
fits snug with correct appearance functions as designed. The
nickel-free front and rear bumpers fit well and continue the rat
rod look as designed. Inside, the interior is a vision of
understatements, but it works well with the exterior! The black
vinyl new front seats have an excellent support and are very
comfortable. The black floor mat, matching black door panels, with
black vinyl covered dashboard is a continuation of the interior and
continues the theme. All the original VDO equipment gauges are in
place and have correct appearance, however, the speedometer, fuel
gauge, blinkers and windshield wipers are inoperable. This example
is also equipped with a original Volkswagen steering wheel (the
horn is inoperable) and upgraded Panasonic MXE CD receiver head
unit. This '69 Double Cab is equipped with a chrome accessorized,
�horizontally opposed, overhead-valve, 1.6 liter air-cooled
four-cylinder engine is fed by single Solex downdraft carburetor.
Power is transferred to the wheels by a 4-speed manual
transmission. Driver assist features include front and rear
hydraulic drum brakes. This VW rides on a custom fully adjustable
suspension and benefits from a free flowing custom side winder
custom exhaust. The 14-inch Mint Green steel wheels (that match the
pinstripes) and smooth centered VW trim caps equipped with wide
whitewall tires complete the look. This attention grabbing
Volkswagen custom rat rod pickup makes a statement in a crowd with
its unique design, and it's distinct exhaust note!... GET OUT AND
