I actually made a post about these a while back... https://oppositelock.kinja.com/volkswagen-camaro-1840201565
They were definitely a thing.
A glorious thing.

That could be an amazing LeMons car!

I thought I remember someone posting about them. This one makes that one look like a work of art. Somehow I think most of the kits ended up like this.

That is spectacularly cool, in an “Oh my God you cannot be serious” kinda way. I want it!

I learned about those in the Weird and Wonderful Autos book from 1975. (The local library had a couple of gems hiding in the kids section).

Any book that teaches kids about the Bruba ker Box deserves a Pulitzer.

That book shaped my childhood, we ended up buying it from the library, and I literally read it until pages fell out.
It had several examples of interesting cars before there was a “right way” to build cars, and a short history of land speed records. I highly recommend it.
