gambling on finishing my 1302 before nye

[STIDUB]

spose i should put a pic up of the other VW
2L, turbo, manual, watercooled, just has 2 more gears than the beetle & alot more creature comforts :lol:



not a bad tow car eh?



the americans amongst us may recognise these...


thats in a 15x6.5" rim just for reference









and the 17x8"




to me, this ^^ is how under the front of every super should be, big rubber, the ability to turn a corner still, coilovers & big-ish brakes

the CV boot seems to JUST clear the shock i have for mock up purposes....




it makes for easy progress when you borrow other people - a mate from aussieveedubbers forums

if you can find the guy haha

wanted, 18x10's to fill these spaces....

trust me, with the bodywork on, theres room... but only just

and, it now rolls & steers, hugely wrong guess with the tie rod length, screwed the ends in too far, its about an inch further in each side!



looks awesome though, despite the dust, and missing headlights



what ya think???

(gotta love copy/paste when posting on other forums)

hope this comes up ok....


progress is a little slower than id like, dont you hate when the rest of life stops you from doing the fun stuff!
