Probably fit into a fastback the easiest.
Humpty's (?) brother put a Turbo ej20 in a notch ages ago and he has some pics on his site http://www.noh2o.org/frameset.htm?section=content/members_cars.htm
I'm not sure if the engine lid needs to be proped up or not?
And as for the squareback I have seen on the web a site with details about someone that fitted an ej22 into one- but i can't find that link now
sorry.
Cheers
Jeremy

youve got tons of room in the spare tire well to fit a radiator in a type 3. alot easier than putting a radiator in a bug |

Thats girl to you :P
Yes its the car that i would put it in, but i'm only dreaming really..
I'm also caught in a mental dilemma of wether to keep the car original and keep its value, or modify it later on..

its a girl! haha.
ya, i went through the phase you are going through. keep it stock and original, or mod it. but i knew it was the car ive always wanted, so i didnt
plan on selling it, and just wanted to do what i wanted with it. i think you should do whatever you want with it.
im lower than you :P haha |

That looks very cool rubyred!
I'd like the same kind of look but with widened original rims and nipple hub caps!

Hi,
No pics but I have looked into it and can offer the conversion for the same price as a beetle / buggy if you do decide to go ahead with it but
don't want to do it yourself.
I am pretty sure we have one to do later in the year already.

hey brad, one issue you might run into with later model type 3s like ours is the lack of frame horns. youd either have to weld in irs pivots, or make
a custom rear engine hanger.
just a little FYI
with the type 3s you have a ton of room up front for a radiator and tons of room in the back which makes for an easy conversion. |

Pete, there are pics! You have to click the links on the web page to view the pics. He has pics of his 'steam trap' and a pic of the radiator
mounted in the front...
