    Those must have been a rough 32k miles. Even if I did believe that mileage claim it doesn't mean much when the car needs a complete restoration.

    I suspected that his figure of 'only 3,200 built' for the '71 2-seat VC was low.
    My source states 9,317 2-seaters, and 20,566 3-seaters were built for the '71 model year, so not particularly rare, especially considering they're virtually the the same as all the others produced from '68 - '72.

    And I'd like to see that proof of the low 'original mileage', thank you.

    Wow. 32,000 miles. Really? With those pictures it looks like somebody’s 1/18 scale model that they did a barn find scenario on. Yikes
