Theme Tuesdays: VW Harlequin’s Part II

Jan 17, 2012

In trying to keep some variety in the Theme Tuesdays (and posts in general) I decided to keep the import and American Theme Tuesdays on the hard drive this week and do something else.

Originally the plan was to finalize the Type A Theme Tuesday but after stumbling across the first Harlequin in today’s post that was put on the back burner.

I never expected this theme to make it to a second round but I’m glad it did.

A lot of these are photos of the same car with different wheels but considering they were made in limited numbers I’ll take what I can.

harley2 — My search for Type-As lead me to this

harley1 — Pretty sure this is @dannytherice on twitter

harley17 — Kind of reminds me of spokey dokes

harley23 — 1 piece BBS RF? New one to me

harley16 — Not sure what wheels these are... sure one of you know... starks maybe?

harley21 — Doo doo brown... working surprisingly well

harley9 — Image RN-4s evidently, do not see a lot of 4 spokes

harley20 — Posted this one a couple times over in part 1, and a few more times today

harley12 — One thing I noticed about Harley owners is they love to collect stuff that matches their car

harley7 — I read this is actually not an original Harley but painted as such, I don't know how to tell

harley8 — Whenever I see these I am reminded of AndreNY's old e30

harley3 — Maybe I should have sorted these by base color... too late

I don’t think I have posted a Fire and Ice yet… maybe look into those in the near future

Thread full of Harlequins here.

According to the Wikipedia of this edition, they all had a certain pattern, so it might not be the same car.

Fire and Ice would be awesome! I know my good friend Mr. Steve Wharton of e11even photography was rocking an MK2 a few years back with the fire and ice interior, but i’ve never seen another one since….
