Off road 356

Post by vw59beetle »

Hey guys

I'm busy doing this off road project and lifted the car a little. What do you think?

Just kidding. I know most of you like it low, but I would love to do a Dakar in one of these :D
We painted it 2 days ago and needed to lift it a bit to get to the " not so easy spots"
Thanks to Micheal Cruz for doing a great job and sharing his skills.

Cheers
Wernher

Well, not sure if you've seen the photo a while back in Junkmail/Gumtree /forum of the Red Beetle body that the guy built onto a Short Wheel Base Pajero chassis - surely then the 356 can be made to fit...That can be an AWESOME ride! :hangloose:
