Hi guys, that's the future for me too. I've done a number of these over the years, using A80 or Passat sub frames, and loosing
all the heavy super beetle front end, and axing the frame head, saves a good 20 kg plus and opens it up to all the golf etc rang of brakes , wheels, struts etc, plus more room for whatever you want, p/s racks, tanks you name it, I did a 4x4 super back in the mid '80s, so the ideas nothing new, but times move on, I'm doing a ball joint 1200 for my next, and probably the last of this type, they're old and hard to find in the scrappy yard now, but i do have plenty of the 'a' arms as spares, this one will be a circuit car, with wasser power and less than 800kg wet, roll out in 2011 with luck.
