Hot VWs Magazine - June 2023

On the cover: Photographed in 1969 and found in our archives, the most unusual Bandido Buggy.  BUGGY WONDER YEARS PART 3In our April 2023 issue, we told you about the hundreds of color slides from the 1960s and early ’70s, which we uncovered in our archives – most photos feature dune buggies. Time to dig further into this forgotten filing box... This month, we take a look at the unusually styled Bandido. THE BEST OF SHOW!Split window-era Type 15 Karmann Cabriolets remain some of the rarest air-cooled VWs in the World today. How rare? Well, the number of surviving examples might be lower than the Hebmüller cabriolet’s count. This month, we are pleased to highlight a 1952 model, one of the 4,763 productions that rolled off Karmann’s factory that year.  TRANSPORTERS AT AMELIA ISLANDVolkswagen’s original Type 2 Transporter took center stage this past March at one of the most prestigious collector car events in the world, the Amelia Island Concours d’elegance in Fernandina Beach, Florida.
