I have never seen anything like it.

I have seen a few of those uniroyal challenge funcup cars in the flesh, and they are NICE bits of kit! Not aircooled, but they look really good!

Someone makes those wings/bumpers etc as all the cars in the series run them!

Cya,
Sam C

Are they not air-cooled in the sense they have water-cooled engines in a Beetle/Super Beetle shell, or are they in a New Beetle shell as well?

They are a spaceframe type chassis, with a mid mount VAG motor cant remember the spec, the body shell is moulded in 2 parts front and rear and meets in the middle they are based on the shape of a 70's swing axle bug

Ditto,

Can just the front fender/spoiler addon fit my 70 bug? I already have a removable front vailance, so it would be kinda easy.

Damn that would look hot!

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe "VAG" means Volkswagen Automobile Group.

Hi, this is my first post here. Long time lurker, but finally decided to sign up.

Just so you guys know, there is much confusion about the meaning of "VAG" within the community as a whole. Many people think it stands for Volkswagen Audi Gruppe (or Group in English) or something along those lines, but it actually stands for Volkswagen AG, which is the short version of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, which is in turn the shortened form of the old (1960's) Volkswagenwerk Aktiengesellschaft. "Aktiengesellschaft" basically means "corporation" and "AG" is similar to "Inc."
