Default Re: My other car...

That's a Meyer's Manx right? My brother would kill for that buggy. He's huge into VW's and has a rail buggy with a 1600cc that he has built from scratch. He has a 1975 VW bus that he did have a full race 1900cc in, but than swapped for a 1.6L n/a diesel from a golf. I think now he's going to put a 1.8L engine out of a Fox into it. He also has a 1964 Notchback that he is restoring and planning on turning it into a baja setup. I believe he is planning on running 33"+ tires on it when finished!

I like VW's but they are expensive. My brother just finished restoring a 1975 Beetle Standard, I was thinking of buying it afterwards, but it's just too dang pricey. The driving feel of the old beetle is much the same as the PT tho, short dash, short front end, and narrow enough to squeeze between anything.
