as previously mentioned on another post that I cant seem to find , this is a copy of an origional photo from the 60's of a drag bug called " YO YO " . Apparently someone on this forum has purchased it after finding it in a Melbourne backyard . I hope this photo helps the new owner in the forthcoming restoration of this piece of Australian VW drag history .
Anyone know what colours it was? I can colourise the pic quite easily.
Cool. Are those air ducts I see behind the rear windows?
love the stood off looking bonnet!
I found some pics of Yo Yo too,
These are a bit later when it ran a 88 x 82 (SPG roller crank)supercharged engine, produced 270 hp and ran on methanol, the gear box was a stock 1500
with a ZF LSD. Ran a best time of 11.21.
Not very good quality, cam from an old magazine article.
The team, Earle Krygger, daughter Kay and wife Pat in racing colours.
Supercharger is chain driven.
The rear end showing the stinger exhaust.
