We can't seem to put forward enough of Beetle->ke318 mods, restorations and peculiar cars based on this epic hatch. So why would somebody do such a thing of acquiring a Corolla->ke1039 and making a VW out of it?

Possibly it could have been a man's discontentment over the $60,000 expenditure to import the Beetle into his nation. Even so, this Corolla-derived Beetle borrowed from other company's parts bins to try and make it whole. For instance, the seats are from BMW, the mirrors are from the Honda Civic, and countless interior bits are from unknown places. Merely the badges and lights are loaned from the Beetle making this a project car that has truly gone nowhere.
