nick

love the gearbox mounts where can i get some , where are the night rider lights on the bonnet??

Yeh put me down for some of those mounts as well.
Simon

Has plenty of potential. Better photos if you can.
What is with the exhaust and wing on the beetle ?

best mounts i ever used can find them from your local hardware that was just when i had the motor sitting there to get the levels right.

as for the bettle it came with that wing when i got it (a few weeks ago) just havnt got around to taking it off. the exhaust was just one that we took off my brothers car then shoved it over mine for a bit of a larf.


if i put up bigger photos it will take ages to load but i will get around to it

aleks

ur bug looks like its laying down a nugget

hot pink FTW
just needs donut king decals down the side

Well I F#@*ING LOVE IT!

DRB FTW!

BTW, what about inverting/reversing the box and mounting the rote mid? Might fit with some minor mods.

hey mate, you're on Ausrotary as well arent you??
first pics I seen of the car, loks great, couple of possibly stupid questions though.
what is it??
where do I get one??

I'm guessing they were an 80's kit car so not too easy to find. it looks to me much nicer than a eureka though. (there is a 13B Eureka being built in Alice I know of)

and just for interest, where is the radiator going to live, out front or in the sides??

EDIT: I should read all posts, I also agree with the previous post, would be nice swapping the rotor and gearbox around to make it mid engined.

as for the mid engine conversion it would be sweetness but for the amount of work i would rather get a bigger tranny then do it.

yes i am also on ausrotary same username and its a 1990 model kit i got mine in brand new condition about 2 years ago.

i am thinking about mounting the rad/intercooler (might not run a cooler) above the gearbox and have all the side vents and a wing under the car feeding cold air to the rad then the hot air going out through the rear vents.

but i am open to any thorts

cheers aleks

It may be worthwhile checking out a twin small rad setup in the rear. Plenty of small jap cars have ones that would be ideal. Mine's front mounted but I toyed with supercharging and was going to use two thermo valve controlled small rads in the extreme rear for extra cooling when stressed, fed from the side vents on my Sabre MK2 and venting out the rear (check my ride pics) vents.

thanks for all the input everybody

now i just have to wait for my dad to help me out so we can get this car built..

the new cut down fan


the engine bay is getting ther slowly



hope yous like the pics

for the love of god please lose that wing

hhaha it will come off i dont like it at all
its just a matter if ther are more important things that need doing first

i was just taking the piss

btw looks like some nice fab work on that custom removable rear valance mount

Got a quite tidy white bonnet sitting here if you need it. All hardware is off mind you

David that hood you have will only fit 68-76 standard bugs. ie not superbugs

wont fit the pre 67 bugs

Thanks for that Joel. Sorry Ske cant help. Re photoshop pics, i really cant work out my fav. Think its the lime green

thanks guys but already picked up a new bonnet just sorting out the tune and stuff first btw Joel I hear from a mate that you know about front mount radiators could u please post some pics a can use for info thanks

not sure who your talking to but my project hasnt even got the green light yet and my old rotary beetle had low speed cooling issues

it was a pretty ugly instal
just a box section frame welded into the spare wheel well with a rx4 radiator bolted to it

theres plenty of people in the non vw conversions section that know far more than i do

but i've been doing shitloads of research on the subject and saved heaps of pics along the way so if theres something in particular never know i may be able to help with a pic
