Top thread! Welcome to the forum.
I reckon Rmad hit the nail on the head, if Brian says that's where his influence came from, then that's where it came from. One mans interpretation is exactly that... As to whether it follows the accepted Bauhaus style is another discussion, which you've all had already ;D
Anybody else remember a Type 3 estate featured in the back pages of Street Machine in the early 90s that had no dash, a 2CV style single spoke steering wheel and climbing tape seat belts. It was flat grey with a flip front, done by a guy called Simon I think? Now that was very cool...
;D

I'd just like to point out that I like the car! It looks great and I fully appreciate the effort and skill involved. Would that I had a fraction of the builders ability. I like rat look too so I hope I am pretty open minded. Was just questioning the terminology. I guess it's safe to say that the builder claimed to be influenced by the Bauhaus movement so the car has become known as this. However it's important to recognise that what he in fact built is NOT a bauhaus car, just in case we need to use this description when a real one comes along.
