PURE CREATION!

Post by vw extreme »

hi there!

just came back from a well deserved holiday! Hopefully will get some work done,need to pick up front suspension and some more small goodies.

Here is two pics! Picture of the motor is what i'm looking at for the rod. it's a 2.3lt aircooled motor(turnkey motor!!!)pushes some serious hp's, still waiting for ther specs and the $$$$$$$$$$. Don't think it's gonna be cheap. "goedkoop is duur koop"

The second pic is a basic outline drawing of what i'm looking to do body wize! Please give some feedback on the design(not the scetch quality). you will see the idea with the front fenders mounted to the pivot to turn with the wheels.Headlights must go on the fenders! Some intelligent lighting!!HA-HA. Thinking of placing extra air intakes infront of rear fenders.

Let me know what you guys think! Pics of the project to follow shortly! Need some progress first!

O ja! There is a third pic! Just to show you all what a supporting wife i have!

goHowzit!

Did some work! Slapped the front suspension on! (wish it was as easy as it sounds) Still some more loose ends to finish regarding the suspension and then we will go to brakes and steering assembly! Enjoy the photos! Can anyone help with a shim card!! Did not receive one with packaging!
