I've just finally managed to open a copy of this month's Volksworld. Loving it. Inspirational.

Any chance of some further photos being posted 'in da werks'?

Time to head back out to my garage  Smiley

Agreed! Is that a 915 tranny I see in there Matt? Any further mods you did to the transmission?

Tnx,
Walter

Hey thanks Johnny and Walter. Glad you like it. Was going to post a thread on in the works, but being that this is a Cal-look forum people get a bit touchy when they see water cooling and turbos! Anyway, I might temp fate and see whether I get some heckling Grin

Yes it is a 915 and it has a Quaife torque biasing diff. I changed the CV outputs to 930 from a Carrrera box, so it now has 930 cv's and axles. Hopefully, they wont break Shocked

Love the car Matt, great look :-)
Since its already obviously not going to be a stock car I can appreciate all the amazing details you put into it :-)

Can't wait to inspect it closer

Thanks Trond. I am building it as a street legal VW. Ok, it's definitely not a street car per se, but it will be street legal. Can't wait to drive it on the street with a parachute sitting on the tail Cool That should get the chavs talking Grin

Maybe you can compete against the Skinne beetle when your car is done  Grin the chute will make for a bad ass look when you blast off down the street  Cool looking forward to follow the progress on this project.

Very nice car Matt! And I like the fact that it is street legal. Keep on with the good work and keep us posted. One question, will you keep the roll cage raw or get it painted? Kind of like the idea of not painting it... but hey... that just me.

Hi Kalle! Thanks again for your kind hospitality in Norway Cool

I will have the chassis and rollcage powder coated. Cornwall is way too wet to run any kind of raw ferrous metal!
