Poor guys Things - a mild couple of dual sports.

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

So let me get this right; In less time than it has taken me to get a roller, you have built a car, run it for a few seasons, and are on to a second project? Man I feel lame. :cry:


Looking forward to the build though!

Don't feel lame, this one will take awhile. I got the spindles and some misc. parts to get me started. Here is a sneak peak.

Me dangerous? Look at the shiz you are building!

Oh you stinker. That's just enough to see what a radical design it is (and make me salivate), but not enough to get the whole picture. ;-)

Looks like an engineered spine to me.... like that aluminum bodied Dunebuggy.com car...

With your skills, it's sure to be a beauty.

Very Nice design :wink:

OH YEAH! Back in business thanks to the JIMCO swap meet. The heims are good enough for a play car and will likely last a few seasons. The rack is no Howe, but it is tight and will do for this version. I am actually suprised by it, no real obvious flaws. Hardly used. Its a BRP or RBP or sumthing another.

Part one done! Sooo many more to go! At least it is a start. It is a mount for the triangle things.

Awesome work there getrdone. Looks more like metal art, than off-road pieces. Nice welds also.
