Oh how cool! :redspotda

yeah...give us the bug report asap! :D

holly shit. this thing has some serious power. i was expecting it to be "quick", but not FAST! this thing is crazy. the guy old me if the gas tank(which is in front) is close to empty, the front wheels will come off the ground if you can launch right. its freakin crazy. i didnt get a video, but i got a couple of pics. its alot better looking in person then it is in the pictures i posted a few days ago. it looks pretty nice. heres some more pics i took when i picked it up, no videos yet, videos should be coming sunday after i mess around with it a little(idling too high, should take me a few minutes to get that fixed.) sounds freakin amazing.

its an amazing car. well worth the 500 mile trip there and back. also, its a little more modded then i thought, has full coilover suspention in the back, lifted 2-3 inches from stock height, and has a 3" wider beam in front. its amazing. i love it.

that thing looks like a lot of fun. my buddy just finished doin a t3/t4 setup on a 2.0 litre from his jetta and put it in an old vw buggy. havent seen it yet but im sure itll be awesome

sweet man! cant wait for the vids!

craig 12-13-2007 10:04 PM

yeah my brother said he tryed to get a video of it when i took off, but i was already gone by the time the camera got started up. lol.

witeshark 12-13-2007 11:15 PM

That is a fun car! Nice find :clap :shades

denyo77 12-14-2007 02:46 PM

yeah, it's awesome... I'm not so sure about the rear design and the exhaust setup looks kinda weird, but else... GO BUG!

craig 12-14-2007 05:02 PM

yeah but every baja bug is like that, except class 11's. and yes, i will be changing the exhaust setup. just gotta find one that fits a 914 motor, but is made for a baja bug. going to be hard. i might end up having a shop just make me one or something.

denyo77 12-14-2007 05:20 PM

oh, it's a 914 engine? They were always underestimated, the Porsche four-bangers...

craig 12-14-2007 05:54 PM

yup, engine came out of a 75 914. its a 2.0(biggest 4 banger in the 914) stock engine had like 95HP out of the factory, he thinks it has abou 100 now after the exhaust. that might not sound like much, but the car was origanly 30HP :)

craig 12-16-2007 12:26 AM

videos might have to wait a while, my camera isnt working at the moment.
