just moved over to Perth and thought id try track down the local VW scene.-
my longstanding project nearing completion across the pond, if i stay it will be coming across
'52 split bug- crotch cooler awaiting final build of engine in uk
used to run it on the street fully caged +2109cc +nos as my daily but took it off the road for a body off and build it up with nostalgic parts.
will be running american 8 spoke magnesium spindles from 1960's machined for willowood single pots, has 5in narrowed ally beam to reset the track to
where my zeroofset erco's spanned.
on the rears ive got a pair of original mag BRM's oxidised to the same colour as the spindles.
close ratio rancho pro drag box etc..
engine is going to be 2109 cc JPM ms230 heads NA on og IDAs, should see low 11'sin 1/4 and be streetable.

Awesome project!.. Love those spindle mounted gasser style wheels.. Just needs some crazy paint and themed writing on the side with some gold leaf work.
