The engine is finished. I just need the ignition that AMX48IDA is producing (the electronic ignition looking like a Vertex magneto), the sender working, stainless hoses for the full flow and an A1 Renn Käfer Cup exhaust :  Here is the gearbox :  And here is the chassis. It will be restored soon.  |

After some months of no activity, I worked a bit on the car during the last days. The pan is off to the sandblaster and will be powdercoated just after. All the rust holes have been repaired first. I've restored and installed the Porsche 356 B drum brakes. The front will follow soon but will not work with the DDS 13' wheels. So I wull used original VW drums on the front for a few month, just for the look of the DDS small wheels. Later, I will put the 356 drums on the front for more safety. It's quite a shame to hide such beautifful brakes whith those wheels.     All the rolling parts are ready for the pan. And the engine with some more purple paint   |

Some progress done about 10 days ago. I made a blank build by putting the body one the chassis. All is fine and the body will soon go to the bodyshop.

Hi,
What are the dimensions of the front wheels? Width and backspace?
What size are the tires?
Has the beam been narrowed?
Thank you
Xavier

Xavier, The front wheels are DDS 4 x 13. The tires are 155x13 XZX Michelin tyres. The beam is narrowed, but not that much : 3,5 centimeters less on each side. |

The rear solid trans mount wasmade by Aaron Boughton. He sold a few on thesamba. The middle mount is made by Danny Gabbard from Gabfab. Both are top quality parts. |
