I just can't help myself, I bought another project, this one is a '54 Beetle, all the dirty work has been done and it just requires assembly, or so I thought!!!
Here are a couple of pics of the finished pan, after I scrounged all the missing bolts, bought the correct tie rod ends and other various parts needed to assembled it.

Spyder-WISD 07-09-05 11.6s @ 125 MPH
Speedster-WISD Nats 05 14.4s @ 89 MPH
Jet cruiser-Coogee 22-09-05 900 deg C @ 110,000 rpm
Weaseling out of things is what separates us from the animals....................Except the Weasel.
It will be standard body and inside will be close to standard.
Running gear is a late IRS pan "L" bug gearbox and not sure what engine yet, something that cruises well, twin carb something??
I have some early porsche Fuchs for it, but I was thinking of some 5 stud flat 4 sprintstars for it, but I am not sure they will fit under the rear guards with a 205 tyre like the Porsche wheels do.
It will be 4 sale when finished, hopefully by Nambucca
