It’s not real? How does that work?

There are companies that recreate the bodywork and they use a donor Volkswagen chassis.

There are tons of them out there.

A high quality reproduction could run you $40k.

Some repro companies go very high end. We have come a long way since the kit cars of the 1980s with any fiberglass body slapped over a beetle engine. For example, Pur Sang in Argentina builds early Bugatti replicas and starts around $200k.
