	Buh-buh-bubble butt! I like it except for that awkward bump... also this thing would look great either on the floor or jacked up super high.

	The styling of the front end made me assume it had something to do with Fiat, but no. Typically Pininfarina in selling a 're-style' that was much the same as most other Farina designs of the era.

	South American I presume? I'm always slightly baffled by the car scene from that part of the world. There seem to be such a wierd combination of models that no other part of the world gets to see. There's stuff like that above which I've never heard of before, which I suppose is based on something obscure from Europe with a new brand name. Then there's the recycled models where major manufacturers pension off thier obsolete designs from North America and Europe like the Ford Falcon and VW Beetles. But then to complicate things further there's the wierd variations on a theme and colaborations like the VW 1500 which was a Hillman/Chrysler Avenger body with VW designed running gear, and there's a bunch of others I can't bring to mind right now.

	RatChart: yes you're right. That's an IKA Torino modified by Lutteral. That's an interesting example of a South American variation of a car, cause it's based on an AMC Rambler, redesigned by Pininfarina and built here by IKA (Industrias Kaiser Argentina). The engine called Tornado was back then the only OHC inline 6 and the gearshift was a german ZF. The back end suspension went also through a heavy redesign from the original car. It's considered here a muscle car hero because of Nürburgring (the image Seth posted). Most people think it's the "real" Argentine car of the time (I can't agree on that, but I'm clearly not a fanatic), since Ford and Chevrolet built cars that were exactly American clones. It was sold here at the top of the available luxury and a couple of aftermarkets modifications were available, being the Lutteral ones the most wanted and expensive. They provided also engine modifications for increased power. There are not so many units around since body panels are impossible to get these days.

	FJSigma, that's some top info and I salute you for providing it. I remember reading your build thread before I cocked up my old account and I've lost the bookmark, can you help and give me a link back to it? I'd love to know what happened with your car.

	Not a prob, here's the last page : retrorides.proboards.com/thread/36947/1989-volkswagen-vw1500-2012-abstract?page=5 You won't find anything new. The car got flooded an April 2013 and stored until September this year. News before the end of the year... hopefully.
