I would like to either sell or give away my circuit car that I built 3 years ago . This is based on a low mileage non rusted L bug that was stored for
about 20 years .
It is painted yellow tinter , has Lexan windows all round , V force race strut package , strut brace , Willwood 4 piston callipers on all 4 corners ,
cross drilled ford patterned disc's , Kombi master cylinder , 12 litre fuel cell , Holley blue pump , -6 braided fuel lines , braided brake lines
throughout , , hyd. park loc and Willwood bias valve , Bilstein rear shocks , cro-moly kafer bar , 26 mm long bars , adj. spring plates , Jay Cee

The car has done approx. 3 1/2 hrs. of work since it was built . There are also some spares that are not listed .
I would like $ 8000 for the complete roller that is located in Wollongong NSW .
I also have 4 different complete race trans here all with LSD's that can be fitted to the car . I also have a selection of engines here that will
suit from 165 HP and up that can be purchased with the car .

I can’t believe you're at it again Rod, your generosity precedes you!
Would look pretty sweet zipping around Willowbank, Strip, Dirt and Track 
Haha, just a shame it would have nowhere to live because my sheds already full 
Best of luck with the sale!

Wow Rod what an offer you put down.
My first car way back when was a 66 bug and lately I have been getting a little nostalgic and wanting to get back into the DUB scene.
I have been reading up everything I can get my hands on and watching everything I can over the last couple of weeks to just see what is out there, and
your name comes up quite a bit in the Aussie VW community.
This would be a great little bug to run at the strips down here in Vic. especially with one of your power plants to compliment it. Not saying I
deserve a car of this calibre but ........... if it was on offer and needed a nice warm garage to sleep in then I would be more than willing to make
some room next to the Tiguan.
By the way what engine/trans setup were you running when you ran the sub 11sec in this DUB??? |
