Bob has quite an amazing brain. He's working on my front end for me, and I'm very happy to be working with someone with so much knowledge.

Uh.... Where's the VW part of this?
ENGINE:
Rover 3.5 litre aluminium V8, bored and stroked to 5.1 litres, with all the trick bits.

TRANSAXLE:
R30 type 369 with ZF limited slip diff.

STEERING:
Holden rack and pinion, Nissan steering column.

BRAKES:
Alfa Romeo pedals and servo, Holden front ventilated discs
and alloy callipers, BMW rear discs and callipers with integral handbrake.

Not much chance of finding these parts in the U.S.!
