A simple restoration gets out of hand | VW ‘Fridolin’ German Mail Van | Matt Koomen | The Purist

Matthew Koomen’s 1969 VW Fridolin started as a faithful factory restoration. But as the build progressed, things got out of hand. » Subscribe here:    / @the.purist   » Check out my tapes:    • The debut of a VW Karmann Ghia 'lowlight' ...   Originally made for the German and Swiss postal service, the VW Type 147 “Kleinlieferwagen” (small delivery van) was a weird mashup of Type 3, Karmann Ghia, Kombi, and Beetle. Most were worked into the ground and scrapped. Matthew rescued this one and made it his own. What began as a German postal van is now a full custom masterpiece that blows people’s minds. Built on an IRS chassis and powered by a 2L engine, it features 17" wheels, custom interior, flawless paint, and detail work that has to be seen to be believed. It’s one of maybe two Fridolins in Australia — and fewer than 150 are known to exist worldwide. If you’re into rare Volkswagens, air-cooled customs, or just love stories of obsessive craftsmanship — this one’s for you.
