Very interesting, wish they had revealed more about the motor they used in
the later models in the late 70's

Youtube suggested this video to me. You might find it interesting also.

It's about the history of the VW Variant in Brazil, so it's all in
Portugese, but I could still look at the photos and figure out the meaning
of some of the captions. Listen for the Portugese pronounciation of
Volkswagen and Karmann Ghia. There's only brief mention of the Fastback and
Squareback/Variant that we know, but it's interesting to see the creativity
that VW do Brazil put into their products.

Maybe the people who did this video will also do a video on the Brazilia.
