Seattle. $100,000 engine in a $2,500 car. The guy has B brakes and 356 wheels all the way round too. By looking at the underside of the decklid, he drives the piss out of it too.

This car has been around a long time. I remember seeing a pic in Hot VWS about 15 years ago.

No, no more pics. If or when I steal a 356 Carrera I'm doing the same thing. Part that sucker out and put all that I can on my bug.  Roll Eyes J/K  Grin

Sitting home alone with a sick stomach and just some books, video and the PC,  this thread got me running some wild memories.
I am looking for a engine picture of St Moritz Fashion or Häcken Hugo as it was called during the period when I owned it, at Bug Run 1 in 1983.
It had my T1 OHC 911 dragster engine in it.
Anyone? I guess it would only be Swedes, Norwegians and Danish at that time. Would love to have a glimpse at what it looked like. I have going to the track and I have on the track but  no single detail picture.

That was a few years before this picture below were Mats Herrlander borrowed the car and finally same year drove it in Germany, winning the race, were he and Per Ericsson/CSP got it sold.
Today it is Udos very succesful car. Just saw the EBI 1 DVD and it was nice. Happy to see how well you run Udo. Congratulations!

Anyway, this thread is about race engines
So below is Häcken Hugo, Mats 2332, with 230 plus hp and one of his famous gearboxes I recall, or did I mix that one up?

At this time the car made 11.8 in Germany on a bad track at Giebelstadt . It was very fast at that time . I only drove the gearbox 2 years and then replaced it with the one that i still have now.

Hi Rune,
You got that picture from my post in STF or from any other source? I am curious if you know were the engine is today?
It is originally built by Karl Erik Nilsson and was rallycrossed in the seventies. I heard it with Lucas timed FI at 10 000 rpm and made the most wonderful chills down my back.

Udo,
Thanks for input as now I remember more. It was Giebelstadt and finals against Roland Jutting, with what another magazine called "world fastest beetle" . Well Mats with his engine and my car were faster. Mats won it.
The green T3 was built by Keith Steinick and originator of CSP. He also built the so called ARPM 3 liter.

I also raced my Häcken Hugo some years before that in what I remember was Mainz Finthen. Engine at the time was the T1 and 911 heads.
During 1979 or 80, I think was first time I raced in Germany with the VW dragster. No idea what track but close to wherever the Haberman family lives/lived because we stayed in their house.

Now this thread is more old history and too little pictures, so I improve that by posting my all times high love of ACVW engine.
Can you imagine what Bob McClure would have done if he would have been alive today?
This is from an article in 1979 and he ran a 66 stroke 92 bore at 9.91 and 143 mph.
On top of it, the engine and car is beautiful. That is a race engine!

Tjena.
I have no idea were the motor is now. I found it for sale on blocket some years ago, can't remember who sold it or what the price was anymore.... To bad.  Awsome machine. Would have loved to hear the sound, but I guess I was'nt even born yet last time it ran....

Hello Udo,

You are right. It was Erlansee with the Habermanns, apart from their friends a lot of American militaries partying. Really good time.
Do you know them? If you do, you also probably know Kent Trenneman who introduced a lot of pro Drag racing to Germany. He has been my drag racing mentor since seventies.

To be clear, yes. I owned your car between something like 1982 to when it was sold in Germany in 1987. Mats Herrlander borrowed the car from me 1987 as I was living in Canada at the time.

The ownership of the car before me was Hans Lindholm who is a VW icon in Swedish history for many of his special cars.
Probably the most famous was the 1303 with a front mounted Chevy smallblock and full stealth mode.
It looked 99% stock and just rumbled quitely.
It took a lot of people by surprise.
Hans Lindholm never raced Häcken Hugo. Then I am not 100% sure but I do not think anyone was in between him and the original builders.

You should also know that your car was the car that inspired me and my partner back in 1976 to choose a VW engine for our dragster.
We knew the ST Moritz Fashion crew very well (Göran, Leif and Eric) and we followed them on every race in Sweden throughout the years.
The car was painted in shitty orange brushpaint first time I saw it. That changed when "Pirk" did his master job.
It is still a classical paint job.
Would love to meet you Udo. I know what you look like as I have seen you on EBI interview from Kurt Källstroms DVD. (highly recommended DVD for anyone. It is done brilliantly in english too.   info@v-dubsvideo.com ) On top of it is coverage from SCC. Saw you race there too.....
Lets see when and what race I will attend next time.

Not a race engine but a nice car.

Talking about Mats Herrlander, this is his Blown Boxer dragster engine. Now for sale.
ARPM 2-piece case, SCAT 86 mm Pro Drag crank, Pauter V4EO cam, Pauter Rodzillas 6,200”, 90,5 Mahle pistons in steel billet cylinders (2541), Racewear studs, Trimco billet heads, Pauter 1,4 rockers, Hilborn, Hampton 4-71 SC, double MSD-distributor (Trimco special), Oberg filter.
I will post some more pictures tomorrow when I get my scanner working. I have part of the engine block and the heads.

DKK Rick....me too ...All T birds are nice but I had a 1990 T bird SC which I loved. That supercharged 3.8 l engine was a purring lion. I loved it.

Here you go!
Some "porn" pictures of a very nice engine.
Here the engine is featured with Jet titanium rods. Later the Rodzillas were used.

Here are the famous heads hunked out of billet 7075 with a handdriven mill. It got Claes Ebbeneäs so hurt that he had use mitella for a lomg epriod of time. But he was proud of that mitella! ....and the heads too.

I took these pictures for an article in a Swedish car magazine about the Blown Boxer dragster.

Bear with me but I just got a new scanner and I will use it to give you some VW history.
This is one of my engines that went in to the 1967 beetle.
This is in Italy probably around 1998.

Here we have another nice contraption.
Twin engine with Scat split ports.
Twin turbo.
Very nicely built but it was not even started and then I never heard  more about it.
Sincerely think this could have had som good potential but only after a lot of sorting, which never happened.
Always wonder if the car and engines still are around in some dusty garage, somewhere.
Location is Sacramento 1988.

Anyone know more, please chip in with info!

Well, while we are on the theme of Twin....here we are with twin Magnusson MC80 on a 3 liter ARPM.
This one I did hear run and it was a beautiful...well noise, sound, rumble but again I think there was plenty to sort out as it was not that quick.
Again I recall this was Sacramento 1988. (Might be wrong on this one though)

If you do not stop me, I will add some more.
