this is going to be a budget build so most of the modifications made should be pretty modest.
so i just picked up this old rail from a guy in town, my dad and i are gonna do it as a father son project. we got the rail, a fresh 1600 DP and a whole pile of parts with allot of new stuff! its built off an old bug with the pan shortened by at least a foot so it might be interesting to see how well the front end stays on the ground once i get the power plant in.
the first thing i plan to do is get rid of the goofy windshield frame and build the cage right! i have a garret t-3 turbo i have been itching to put on an aircooled and i think this is the lucky winner! probbly gonna put some sheet metal on it and set it up for rallyin through the trails.
i dont know what year it is but i know its got to be pretty early from the looks of the the rear suspension the engine i have is outta a later bug and should work well.
i have had a few VW projects but most have been all stock so any tips and tricks ya got bring it on!
