Title: Magazine-features
Post by: vwcab on October 14, 2008, 12:16:20 pm
In the latest issue of Ultra VW,is a report  the "Street VW's Jamboree" in Japan.It is good to see pic's from cars overthere,because we don't see that many.
So I thought,I would like to see more cars featured from there.While I'm now on the subject of featuring cars,I will give you my
top 5 of cars that I'd like to see in the magazines(from all over the world):
1.Japanese oval(Tokuji Ichihara) with big wing
2.Sven's gemini(belgium)
3.Oval 850hp(scandinavia)
4.Roland's 68(belgium)
5.Steve Niendorf's 67(usa).
So guys,let's hear, what you like to see.  ;) Grtz.Peter

What I hate is how storys get copied (pics as well)from one magazine to another and about the same time (month)too.
I'm from Australia and would love to see more Ozzie cars .

T3-style pancake motor. Ghia floorpan with ball-joint front end. Surprised there are not more in SoCal – they're not that rare and you can even find them in Portugal. Neat cars.

The only problem is that Drag Brasilia is water cooled. Sorry guys! But I still love it. Theres a whole series in brasil that seems to run golf/rabbit motors in aircooled bodies its a series called FLTT.
