Aircooled VW South Africa

That rocks!!

That looks potent!!!!

Thats fookin INSANE! Awesome in the uberest degree. How'd you get it that low?? And can you even have more than one person in there with you?

Cant be that low without weedeater beams,,, there is no turning radius,

Will go perfectly straight into a corner

Photoshop Goblin? Looks good that low though!!

photo shop is great. but that is how i want my bus. going to order that offset spring plates then going to get my front suspension done

Sweet

Just for a bit of balance here ... I think it looks stupid.

Also, to make a bus that low outside of photochop requires "tubbing", which is not exactly a reversible mod.

I really don't get the attraction of lowered buses. Why would anyone want to detract so much from the bus's utility just to satisfy a dubious urge to look "cool". If you must modify your bus's ride height, RAISING it would be more appropriate for African conditions.

This is just my opinion and is not a criticism of anyone; please don't take it personally.

This is a response to goblin's photochop pic of his bus "in the weeds". If anyone wants to debate my point of view, please start a new thread in the appropriate forum; I'm sure goblin doesn't want his project thread to become a battleground.

The keyword is tastefully lowered

thanks for your opinion fig. ive learnt a great amount of things from you, but this is my personal opinion and i like the look. my heart is still with oldskul vw's and wateva mods i do will still be changable to its original form, so yes i would go with the lowered look because I LIKE IT.

just got my beam narrowed by 4 inches and also got my spindles flipped to give me a 3.5 inch drop from what a had it before.

i love it
now to just get the rear sorted once i recieve my springplates from jhb

front suspension is in and looking great. i repaired the one side of the roof that was badly rusted. but as i was doing that i just discovered that there is more fibre glass on the roof so i started ripping it off just to find some more rust. i got 2 options:

1- take the bus off the road completely (not knowing for how long)

2- work the bus piece by piece and keep it on the road.

(thinking Face)

Ps. can someone please help me post my pics the files are too large

email is will post them up for you
