Adam's drag bug & Mike's Drag Bug
just thought i would post the link to the thread of my car on here and also start a new thread regarding my car and mike's car seeing as though they
are going do be drag orientated and its just easier for me to keep track of and update the one thread instead of 2 (im lazy ). more pics will be up soon, in the mean time, heres a few pics of mine
on the link below

here are a couple of the recent pics, iv got pics from when i first got it but there are waaaayyyyy too many to post up... lol there are a few of the
early ones on the link in my signature box if anyone is interested.... anyway, here goes and there will be many more to come including mikes car,
hopefully i can get some update pics within a few days (she's a bit naked at the moment and we need to hang some panels  )
deleted herbie that night and trial fitted bonnet and deckilid
some sanding............. and then some more... and so on....
being a little silly
kyb shocks and gearbox strap
yet again another front beam, this one is a CB 2 inch narrow with step adjusters.
mattie olsen machined up these nice trick alloy spacers so that i could fit the center cap onto my BRM's
the scat tensioner pulley is rubbish so stoker machined up this one for me
and these are just some recent pics.

Yeah, sweet as. I almost sold my Rader wheels last year to do the exact same thing to my 58 - put BRM's on it. Surely they're not 15x6's on the
front though?

hi Harry, extractors were actually off the shelf.... saw them at valla at george's stand (classic veedub) so when we got back to sydney i bought
them. the muffler i bought from mike from CBB performance, you should be able to get the complete kit from either of them or you could give boris from
vintage veedub a call too..... yeah its polished stainless..... prick to keep clean but i just love the look they have... thinking of getting them
ceramic coated... see how i go

got it from Rod Penrose, it was his last one left and it cost $360. he said he will be getting a few more in but closer to the end of the year, should
be similar money, obviously just depends on exchange rate and stuff at the time. and as far as i know its all the same as a beetle box, its just made
stronger with more and bigger ribs. cheers adam

ummmm, i dont know which pics ur looking at dave, i posted a pic of both inlet ports which are obviously going to be the same unless ur going to be
running different capacities per cylinder and as for the single port pic, its of the exhaust port and again, they will all be the same. do you have different sized ports on
your heads?? mike says that would explain the hoursepower your making
