| | | Posted by Samurai the worlds slowest sports car! man, rust is the enemy! I always loved those cars... I wanted to do something different and stuff a Corrado engine in it or a VR6 in the ass. Nice find.
| Ha, that's about the right description. I'm going to stick with the air cooled 1600, but the stock 46 horses will not cut it here in the hills of PA. I'm still learning air-cooled VW motors, but I'd like to get it up to about 90-100, which should make it move pretty good. It weighs nothing- I separated the body from the pan yesterday, and I can pick the body up about 6 inches off the pan by myself. Posted by bandi Yes, I am in lust. Mmmm.
check out www.cip1.com for parts...
| Thanks man, I'll definitely check that out. I've been pricing parts from karmannghia.com, but since there's so much body work to do, I'm planning on looking around for the best quality parts so they can be installed pretty easily without me spending hours having to modify them. Posted by chromehorse I restored one of those back when i was still a mechanic. It was actually a fun project, compared to some restorations i've done. At least you have a decent aftermarket to help you through. Have fun with it.
| Thank you, I think I will enjoy it. It's a nice easy car to work with. It barely makes a dent in my 3 1/2 car garage, even with parts all over.
