Obscure

1962 Willys Overland Interlagos By Marvin McFalls The Willys Overland Interlagos was the first sports car to be built in Brazil, produce locally under license, the using the Renault Alpine A108. The A108 was developed and built by the independent French carmaker Jean Rédélé in 1956, based on the Renault Dauphine platform, but with a special steel backbone type chassis. The Renault Dauphine cars had been produced in Brazil since 1959 by WOB and all the mechanical components were available. Demand was so high that by the end of 1962, 131 cars inspired in the A108 were produced. More details found here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/-/272131352432

It usually gets auto-linked by Reddit if you post a link, but in this case you posted a 'text post'. No worries though!

Quite alright. You can post text, like you did, or link type posts. In the future if you wanted to make a link post with text your text will have to go in the comments.

It looks very similar to an air cooled VW.

Kinda like a Karman-Ghia. I recognized its lineage to the Renault Alpine/Dauphine when I first saw it.

Yes, it looks like the love child of a VW Karmann Ghia and a Renault Alpine.

Does that only have 3 lug studs? Look at the spare.

That's the French for you. Many Peugeot and Citroen only have 3 lugs.

I'm not sure that it is $22,000 cool for me, but I would consider it. That is sweet.

I love the body design. I wish it was overall larger, it looks too diminutive in person, but the lines are awesome.
