cheap too (so far)

Had a look at it, have asked the seller for the engine numbers to determine year and HP. either 150HP or 180, looks like home made intake manifold to suit some sort of twin side draft carby ( Weber/ dellorto)?? but reckon the car is dingo ugly thanks for the post cheers Frank

is it a VW based car???

Half a vdub based car, vw floor pan corvair drivetrain

Just had another look, I assumed it was half a vdub, thinks me is Wrong!! might be a full corvair chassis under that thing cheers Frank

looks like a turbo setup on it

How many people go wild on bidding when the auction still has days to go? makes one wonder, as for me, well, most of the time I work out what I am prepared to pay and bid that amount anytime during the auction if I get outbid , so be it !! I wasn't meant to have it. but when you watch when one bloke bids midway through the auction, then some one with an equally low feedback score out bids them, they straight away out bid each other? and maybe a third or forth different bidder just to make it look interesting. Then the seller will ring his buddies and say, okay guys the money is pretty close to what i want, dont make any more bids. Then the auction goes quiet for the last 24hrs, no real bids and the item gets relisted and the same statement is made "Due to a dead beat bidder this item has been relisted"!! I reckon this auction is a perfect example!! but i have been wrong before so just call me a cynical old barstard. oh and yes this motor is a factory turbo unit with a home made intake. Fair bit of stuff missing from motor, will be interesting to watch last hour of auction, or should that be "uninteresting"? ha cheers Frank

Cynical old Bastard
