“Born in 1970 as the VW Beetle 1302, this example, which after a quarter of a century did not differ from its counterparts, ended up in the hands of Alpine craftsmen who transformed it into a kind of rural chalet.
Hence the name wooden house. Basically, all that remained of the original car was the chassis with an air-cooled 1.6-liter boxer engine with around 50 hp and the recognizable, beefy front end, decorated with pastoral scenes.
Instead of the all-metal two-door cabin, a miniaturized wooden house was erected, as it should be, with shutters, a chimney protruding from the gable roof.
Inside there are wooden benches, a table and a fully functional oven.
The hubcaps, bumpers and wiper blades re also made of wood.
This gem is crowned by a bronze eagle on the roof (why not a rooster?).
The safety of the cabin car is nil, as even the driver has only an ordinary wooden seat without a seat belt and headrest.
But “Holzhaus” was not intended for road trips or even camping, but was designed purely as a show car and served as a mobile bar and ticket office at Alpine Club events and festivals.”
