Made it over to Chanc's Mom's Garage today

Had my camera with me and snaped a couple shots of his car in pieces.

thanks for showing all the guts. It is great to see that engine fitted in there.

That car really needed that kind of engine. Here's a pic of it nect to mt 69 RHD suicide-doored jalopy back when Matt had it.

That's a cool picture. Do you still have your Bug? Do you still see Matt? I've tried to send a picture of it to his old email and it came back saying undeliverable. I also put a Rancho Transaxle ( Pro-comp Plus with shortened sway-away axles) in it. I have some videos of the car at the track on here and on youtube under ( chancs beetle). That picture wasn't long before I bought it according to the photo date. It has takin awhile but I think I have the car pretty much finished as far as I want to go with it. Thanks for sharing the Photo and if you still see Matt tell him she's been well takin care of for me.

P.S. I still have the wing-hood but it doesn't fit over the Turbo.

I sold the 69 RHD suicide-doored jalopy about the same time Matt sold the chopped drag bug. It stayed local and last I heard is all apart to be redone but has been sitting a while. Yeah, I still see Matt, he lives a few miles from me. He currently has a sweet 68 Ghia and is working on a ratty DC.

I'm working on my own chop top now.

You said you were thinking about selling your car, are you still thinking about it?

I'm looking to replace my drag Mustang with a VW. PM me, we should talk.

You have a great car dude. Congratz on it!

How old is this car? What is the maximum speed?

Thanks, It is a 63 body on a 68 pan. It is for sale but I'm not in any rush to sell it unless I get a good offer. I have about $18,000 in it just in parts and I'd take $15,000 for it.
