No its a 3 piece case, sort of like a type 4 with the heads. The box is different too, they have a different type of shift linkage set up....

have a look on ebay in the states...I am going to bring one out this year.....you can get a really straight one for $14000 US which is $20000 plus say $5000 for duty and shipping.
Here is an example....

Thats along way off $40000.

Hey Matt. Keep e posted as to how you go doing this import as i may be interested in doing something simliar in the future.

Please tell me your not going to do what i think you are going to do to it.

Hutcho - January 31st, 2005 at 09:03 PM

Matt, Id kill for that one, in RHD!!
Let us know how you go...

boof2332 - January 31st, 2005 at 09:41 PM

What do you think I was going to do with it......

Apparently the gearbox is not that strong, Doddy told me they do not like hard starts....

NO, I am not going to put a wrx motor in it, I was however thinking of a nice stroked vw engine with IDA's....

I am actually looking at a 356c or super 90, early 60's some of them put out 90hp, which is healthy enough to take on a sunday drive!

Will keep you posted on progress...I might be looking at an early 911 also, and while we are there you can get an immaculate 914 for $3000($4000 aussie).That would get a wrx motor for sure.

Matt, I would be keen to get on for a 356 or an early 911

Love your style Matt. Hey after last week looking at your beetle with Chris i thought you'd Subaru a 356 for sure. As for a cheap 914. Yes please. Would love one of those babies.
