Is the Hebmüller a rare car?
Vehicle Description Kindig, of Kindig-It Design in Utah, calls the Hebmuller the rarest and coolest Volkswagen. The team started with a complete genuine Hebmuller, a special sports version of the VW Type 1 of which fewer than 700 were produced. VW Trends Magazine says approximately 100 are believed to exist today. Though commissioned by VW to produce 2,000 cars, Hebmüller was only able to build 696 units due to a fire in 1949 that bankrupted the company and significantly hurt production. As a result, Hebmüller Cabriolets are highly prized by Volkswagen collectors and can command asking prices above $200,000.
