Amazing! I will definitely be following along as a fellow Europa abuser. Would love to hear your plans for it. Keeping the N*? Roof or speedster? I think it would look very speed racer to have have just a roll hoop and wind deflector.

Not having a roof sure makes the Twin Cam rear deck look much better!

Bonus points if you make the two sail panels into dual D-type head rest swoops:

It's actually an S2 rear deck with the  sail panels sunk 4-5" into the quarter panels. The Twin cam deck would be pretty much flat. I think this is a good accidental blend of the two!
