One Car To Do It All
My son sent me this link to a great video.
It's 911 based but the basics are true for VW too. Check out the workshop he created within a standard double garage, without prior expertise. The
guy is a writer, he just thought things through before building stuff to go in it.
A quote I particularly liked:
"horsepower is nice but it's handling that gets you round the track fast".

Regards,
Matt.

Thanks for posting that, Matt.
One of the best I've ever watched .
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Not only are the car and garage amazing, but so is the guy for taking on a project like that and never having done any of those tradies jobs before.

hey, you don't need a lot of money to set up a good workshop, just time and skills, which both go hand in hand.
Thats was a great vid, love how that 911 get around the corners so cleanly.
