Here is a mystery for all you #ClassicCar buffs out there! This interesting body kit is deceiving; it certainly foxed me for a while. Who can tell me what car this really is? Share your thoughts and musings in the comments. 😹
An abandoned silver-colored car sits in a leaf-strewn lot, part of a social media post. The car shows signs of aging and neglect,

Back in the day (late 70's-early 80's) there were TONS of kits to tart up your VW Bug... and the RR bonnets were definitely in the mix. If I hadda guess I'd say that's a Super Beetle with a mod kit...

(The thing about the Beetle line was that the body wasn't welded to the chassis like American cars of the era; it was simply bolted on, and if you didn't like your Beetle's looks, you could simply unbolt their reality and substitute your own. Everything from dune buggies to sports cars.)
