here is my latest project, 1973 VW type 3 fastback, car body, and interior wise is about 95% original, the previous owner just put in a 1700cc stroker motor, and a freeway flier trans axle... its got some body issues that need to be addressed, but there is no way in hell i got hurt on this deal with all the hidden goodies in it, and the kicker, it still has the original 1973 owners manual, license plates, and frames from the dealership it was purchased from




MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...................... dual carbs :

 

Nice score dude!

 

win

 

Nice!

 

thats clean for being pretty much original.

 

that things wicked

 

nice. slame it.

 

As you know I think its badass man. You know what would be awesome. Slam it with a TDI!

 

I'm gonna watch this thread! That is very different, what's the plans?

 

Looks like an overall pretty solid and clean Vdub. Not many of those built up either...so it'll be cool at the local Bug-in's. Pretty freakin' awesome the motor has been gone through. Even though those engines are a cake walk to work on and build, it's great you found one with work already done to it.


So...what are the plans for the ride??



BTW....saw a Volksrod today in Gresham. soooooo effin' sweet!

 

TDI is not gonna happen, i owned a jetta TDI, and wasn't impressed



but someday it will be bagged

 

FREAKIN SWEET!!!

Here's a 70's model VW Squareback Wagon that was at one of the Cleveland, TN Cruise-In a while back:

Square tube chassis, 9in Ford, 383 stroker, & PG.....SERIOUS SLEEPER while sittin still with hood down, but when fired up, ya definitely know it ain't no V'dub engine in it anymore......

Curious>>>>what'd ya haveta drop($) to get it????
