The Other Car (56K No No)

[Gunn79]

....that I helped co-build. Behold - I present the Super-Shitbox!

This car gets more looks than any other car I have been in bar the Mini Moke my mate used to have. Me and a mate built it up from an 80's styled 1.2 we pulled from a field.

Its note hugely quick, but gets off the line very well, and has enough to embarass your average rep wagon.

Runs a 1.6 Beetle Cup race engine, 3" narrowed front beam with disc conversion, no interior, stickers for headlining, VW Buggy GRP seats, plolycarbonate rear windows with NACA ducts and cold air feed, and some nice little period parts.

Erco rear wheels and Gasser style fronts. Wheels are worth a lot more than the actual car LOL!

Future plans are for a 2.3L Type 1 engine, now the 1.6 engine has proven the platform works.

Matt black, or a really flat battle ship grey. I think the paint on there is a crap Ford red, badly sprayed over the original orange paint. Either way, the crapness off the paint is perfect for her. Rat-Looooooooooook! :twisted:
