I want this car! There is a Ghia on Ebay being marketed by Gateway that has been modified into a mid-engine Type 4 with a 915 5 speed trans. It is also a car that I would love to own, they are asking $57K for it and it is just too much.
Nice. Nice. Nice. It sounds fabulous above 4,000, too.
Nice. I was in high school in the 80s, and the school parking lot was full of lowered bugs, muscle cars and mini trucks. I went the Vw route, owning many Vws over the years, and drooling over the feature cars in hot Vw magazine. I still own a couple of vws, and currently building a stock 1955 oval window. I guess Vws are like old friends you just want to keep around. Every time I sit in one, I remember the good old days.
Dude.
Günter Artz was a VW dealer in Germany that built a mid engine Superbug with a 2.7 Carrera motor , in the early 70s
“The TÜV people couldn’t believe it,” he stated, emphasising the need for measurement data from the Wolfsburg wind tunnel to prove its aerodynamic capabilities.
I think this is why there is basically no hot-rodding in Germany. It's illegal for anyone without $20,000 or more for the testing and paperwork.
the car could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 25.6 seconds.
Really? Wow!
