My mid engine subi bug is on the gas.

So the VW bug i built came back today.

I know it's rough but the owner has no money and will use anything he has to get the job done.

I built the cage, the coil over set up, engine, trans mounts and some other stuff.
The owner did all the rest.

Its a 68? VW bug running a subaru STI engine and 6 speed manual trans and now a 100 shot of N20 (@j par )
Engine is right behind the driver seat with trans out the back.
When i built this i had never seen it done. This was all figure it out on the fly kinda work.

Also i built this car for free so... yeah.....

Note the big drag radials on bead lock wheels and huge flared fenders.

This is still my favorite build. There is just so much to look at and it is such a mix of pis poor and awsome. Its crazy.

He took me for a ride today and i would say mid 11s. Its fast for a street car.

He may do pikes peak when i get the car to pass tech.

Enjoy!
