my V8 Kombi
hey guys, i don't know if you havent seen my car in the non VW engine conversions part of the site, but this is proudly my V8 now
took me a while to plan how it was all to go and fit, not to mention finding all the parts,
i was told by so many that it wont work and that i will screw up the car... HA look at it now!!! bet that shut em up
not bad for a 19yo non-mechanic eh haha
kevo
by the way, this is how the car looked when i first bought it when i was in year 12

I think it would be possible to mod a standar kombi lid and put it on... i reckon it would look better than having the ass hanging out.
I'm sure somebody on here had Range Rover motor in a bay and manage to fit it under the lid.

na i didnt paint it jeremy, i got it professionally done, i have 2 mates in the business and they panneled the whole thing and sprayed it, all up
including the 2pac and other materials it cost me $4k, yer i love the colour too, "devil Yellow" also known as monaro yellow,
as for my gearbox 11CAB, haha na i don't do that often, i drive her relatively nice, and have never tried to sit brake the car without the road bein
wet or havin dishwashin liquid on it haha,
as for the boot lid, i am just over halfway moulding a new fibreglass lit with bowl shaped bits in it to fit the alternator, waterpump pully and belt,
sanding it back to a nice smooth even shape probably as you read this...
cheers for the comments guys, apriciate it :thumb
