What a fantastic car! The craftsmanship is incredible, I was blown away by all the details, really amazing! A german magazine "vw speed" titled the car the best oval ever. Great Job and thanks for sharing the pics a real inspiration!

Now all I need to do is find out how to get a couple of copies.... As for the pictures, Stephan Stanzi shot the car for both magazines and a couple of others that wanted pics. It's ok with me I'm very glad that soo many magazines wanted to feature it. I say very humbly "something like this car should be enjoyed be as many people as possible" |

The kit is realy simple to install. There is a little trimming done to the bulkhead, then our bulkhead assembly slips down over the stock one. A couple of measurements and some welding and your ready to install your brakes, wheels and tires. The average guy can install one in an afternoon.

The rear kit is actually here
![]() http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifie...php?id=1103802 What are the differences and considerations between the front and rear kits at US$3,300 and US$2,400, respectively, and the full chassis? (I can't find the link I once had but I believe the price was in the US$9,900 range.) Also, I am not really familiar with VIN's and Type 1's that are not Super Beetles. I know the VIN is typically located on older Type 1's on the chassis (maybe later ones and Super's also). How does one handle the VIN for the DMV with a full Mendeola chassis? Or, if one uses the front and rear kits, is the chassis VIN still in play for use?
