    That's Bring A Trailer for those not in the know. Time warp cool ride. I always thought they were a cool little "truck" and still do but never owned one.

    I did however own a VW Rabbit Pickup for a few years. Loved that little truck. The A/C would freeze your ass in that small interior space. I wish there were modern versions available in the States. A Golf GTI based pickup would be uber cool.

    I rode in the back of one on those little plastic seats from Piedmont to Disney and back when I was 10 or so. Still feel the pain at 48.

    I thought most owners stripped those seats out for more bed space?

    There is a conversion kit for a Jetta to make a VW truck.

    Brat-Bi-drive Recreational All-terrain Transporter. I had a 1984 brat . I stripped the seats out of the bed and took the brat decals off the sides of the vehicle.

    Doesn't a Honda Ridgeline look like a full size Brat?

    This is one vehicle I have never seen at any car show or cruise in the last oh 25 years or more. Which means either they are totally undesirable or they were built so shitty only this one remains.

    They, like every Subie from that era, rotted out and fell apart waaaaaaay before you could kill the drivetrains. That's why I got rid of my old 4wd wagon. Literally disintegrated around me.
