Turbo54's New Ride
Hi All,
I bought this up on Australia Day for my everyday driver. It's a 65 with late model pan, 1600 twin port and 16" Superlights. It also has its
original salt n pepper interior and perf'd roof lining. Cant wait to get it home.
O'h and check out the update on my 54 beetle coming soon!

Mate, I must admit that is one of the best type IIIs I have seen thus far. The combination of colour, wheel choice and ride height just make
everything gel perfectly.
I am not a huge type III aficianado (not that I have anything against them - just not my cuppa tea), but this one truly rocks. Great stuff.

T54,
That is a superb looking square! I've never seen one with S'lites on it and judging by what this looks like there will be a few on the scene with
the same wheels soon.
You should be wrapped!-W

Hi all, I dont know much about the wheels but they are one off's as he had to have them made and narrow the rear end to get them to fit, glad to have
them though.

That sure is a gorgeous type III. I've never been a fan of those wheels but they look great with that colour and ride height.

of extra room when low

Good to see you on here adam, hey any progress on the extra gearbox mount?
I thinking of assembling my 2165 with no crank, rods, cam and pistons to get the manifolds made and then putting it together just incase something
happens like a stray bit of metal etc.
What do you think?

these wheels were very thick to start with so there is plenty of strength have done this plenty of times , some times even just 2mm helps
heath:
i have to make a mount for somebody else aswell so i"ll go into work tomorrow and make them
putting a dummy engine in is a good idea im doing the same on the new car
