Much more than just a restoration, this Volkswagen is powered by a 2.5L/175 HP SOHC Subaru engine with electronic fuel injection built by Outfront Motorsports in Buena Park, California. The engine is kept cool by two aluminum radiators that were fabricated by Scott"s Best Radiator in Hays, Kansas, complete with custom shrouding and fans. Among all the details of the highly detailed engine are custom stainless steel dual exhausts with high-performance coating by Jet-Hot of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Power is channeled to the rear wheels via a Freeway Flyer transmission, and grip is courtesy of 215-45-17 Nexen radial tires wrapping 7x17-inch polished aluminum Porsche 911-style 5-lug wheels from California Import Parts, Ltd.

Purchased by the current owner on March 27, 1986, the Volkswagen was reengineered, painted and reassembled by Calvin Customs of Salina, Kansas, beginning in the winter of 2015 and emerging in the fall of 2020. The upper and interior sections were painted in VW L312 Palm Green, a mid-1950s VW Bus color, while the lower sections and bed were painted with RAL 7002 Olive Gray, matching a late-1950s Porsche Stone Gray. The original steel hoops are ready to be installed for the bed tarp cover, having been painted Olive Gray, and the bed is topped off with sealed hardwood strips.
