Interesting question!
Basically I scored my old TIV power plant. 914,haltech, k8 (I think?)
Since I owned it, I freshened up the top end and converted to quad throttle bodies
for the new owner.
Too much grunt it seems as he could never keep tranny's up to it.
Shimmo god wasn't around (to my knowledge) and local vw shops
said it was a loosing battle.
So he went 6 cyl subi & reno box... still not happy
so hes trying auto vw/audi box???
Any I now got this tough engine for the right car.
I'm thinking gotta be LIGHT.
Some sort of buggy that I can modify into something
that looks ultra modern is the plan but I'm still trying to work out rego legalities???
After building an 11m catamaran it'd be nice to use glassing fabrication skills,
lots of carbonfiber etc etc.
what do you think?

Ahhhh!!
Now that is hot!
They look fantastic ultra low, but I have awsome offroad tracks literally at my front door and the best beach driving Qld has to offer only 15 minutes away!
Gotta go offroad again.
