  • German Look VW's

    I've had a thing for the German Look VW's since my first Superbeetle in Highschool. I need to build one and get it out of my system. Socal bugs dont hold a candle...

                        I haven't really reaserched this but I have wondered for a while how hard it would be to retromod a old bug? Would be cool to have a old oval window bug with a new bug drivetrain and AC/ modern heat etc.

                          Um, well there have been swaps where a new watercooled 4 or v6 was swapped into a classic, but with the availability of air cooled stuff, it doesnt seem worth it to me.

                          In my daydreams, I would build Superbeetle, with a stroker, turbo it, freeway flyer trans, coilovers on the front, A/C kit, and very nice interior, with a nice system. Should knock down mid 30's if you can keep your foot out of it on the highway, and be plenty of fun.
