The 1990 VW Passat African Rally car

Post by b5rockingthevdub »

This is what started my obsession.
Here you go guys, if you've ever thought about how much strain you can but your passat through. Well i found out. This was my first passat. I jumped it 10 ft over a sand dune, drove it through a river up to the bonnet. OH and up a sand dune wasnt easy crossing the SAHARA DESERT.

Heres some pics, i hope you like
