Yup, inner wings need cutting/widening and the trays are long gone!

All good and true, BUT, the guy with the orange Scooby bug in Volksworld is now on his 3rd type one trans. I guess he abuses it? I wouldn't abuse mine, but it would be nice to know that you're not going to leave a pile of bits on the road if you occaisionally want to smoke 'em up or shift in anger?
Does anyone sell mega tough type one boxes with the stongest and best of everything (Mendeola are too exoensive, but nice idea...)
Plus there is still the 4 speed problem?
Surely someone has mated G50 to a scooby before now and know what to do clutch and flywheel wise?
It would seem a front rad really is the way to go then? I ain't cutting holes though.... No sireee!
I see a big catfish, under valance, C4 'vette style scoop in my future?
Coolant tubes in the heater channels?
If a type one was used with a reversed mount, would that allow DOHC covers to clear the bodywork?
Again, sorry for all the questions.
