For some, the coolest match up of old and new is Betty White staring in this season’s hit sitcom, but for others, it’s something far less obvious, and much better sounding. Imagine if you will a Fiat 125 – the 124’s fancy pants brother – that has been freed from the yoke of its 90-horse 1,608-cc four and given something… well, a little more German. Yeah doggies, this classic Italian sedan has been imbued with one of Volkswagen’s sweet narrow-angle VR6 engines, and not just any, but one from an R32. The coup de grace however is that it’s been converted to a coupe as well.

It was built by Genowefa Garage for a group of guys who describe themselves as ‘just a bunch of friends with heads filled up with VW,’ or more formally as, Wolfsgruppe. It’s described as a work in progress, but it already both looks and sounds as mean as a wolf, and you can see and hear it howl right after the jump.
