Hey guys!

Some of you know my car... but I thought I would post it up... My Sept51 Crotch Cooler split!

The car has a 7 inch beam that I made and is running spindle-less right now with 125 tires. Two splines out back and 165's

I still want to get some more OG parts... taillights being #1... And eventually I want to RHD the car! Im sure I will be asking around on here about that

Looks bloody fantastic! Do you get the purists trying to hunt you down for "doing that to a split"?

Great work I say :yes:

What the hell.. It's only money!. Nice ride mate, stuff the purists, it drives and looks sweet and it's YOURS! enjoy

Very nice, sticking it to the purists.

Love the look, and I'm with kombinationdetailing and 66deluxe, it's your car so you do what ever you want to it.

If you want the low down on RHD conversions give Kimm a call out at Indian Automotive. He converted a Ghia over for a customer and does some awesome work. Check out the vanwinkle stretch split bus, there's pics that crewcab has posted on the site here.

Mate, no-one would argue that your bug is amazing. It's yours, so bloody do as you please!

VWFOOL - You are right, I just need the pedal assembly and pitman arm.. The rest I can just move over! It should be cake

I need to get on here more often so I can chat it up with you guys... Im usually just too busy at my shop! Thanks again for all your comments on my junk! You guys are right, The purist gang gave me the worst looks I have ever gotten in my life when I took it to the first all VW show!

Can't believe how cool this ride is...Hey Man!Is this lil beasty coming to our shores? shouldn't he be able to register as lhd as vintage vehicle? or are you intending to use as a daily? either way, apart from the odd bit of external rust (seeVanwinkle and El Concreto... if they can get registered with their funky exteriors :) ) the only rust you need to take care of is structural, any pics of it's belly and donk? Thanks for tha pics.. she' sweeeeet!
