hi , my name is dave, i currently run a small side line business building performance buggies and turbo motors. i am currntly running a 86 mm x 94 mm turbo type 1 motor in my beach buggy. the car has run a 10.8 on the drag strip with the aid of slicks and wheelie bars. the motor i have just installed in the car has not been down the strip yet, but includes the following parts. 86 mm cb crank/ chevy dia cb h beam rods/ wiseco piston and longer sleeve kit from scat/ tc 30 turbo cam /1.4 ratio scat rockers/ cb comp eliminator heads 48 mm x 40 mm/ dellorto 45 mm turbo carbs/ t 61 turbo/ intercooled/ porsche 911 cooling fan kit
i am hoping the car will run in the low 10 sec bracket when i have put some miles on the motor. we also look after a number of turbobuggies fro our client base in cape town. i stock a large range of beetle dress up items/ brake parts/ performance engine bits and lowered beams etc. we aso build performance motors to clients specification. lok forward to hearing from you. regards dave

Hi all,

Found this site very informative, so eventually I decided to join.

I am Louis from Magaliesburg, working in the IT industry as a consultant. My interest the last couple of years has been restoring vintage MX motocycles (besides other hobbies), and that has spilled over into cars as well. I have always wanted to have a Beetle, and when a 1962 Beetle was offered to me, I could not resist. This will be my first vehicle restoration project. My restoring philosophy is to enjoy the re-builds and take my time.

Hope to participate in this forum on a regular basis.
