    The algorithm dropped this on me and I subscribed before 3 minutes in. This is the sort of creative I love best. On the fly, with only a general idea of where it is taking you. And you make it look so easy... LOL.. experience in action. And you suddenly have a client/patron, who dropped a Henry-J on you !! That will be fun. And the lady likes your new project chop. Dude... go for the brass ring. This channel is about to get crazy.....

    The width between the middle tread right side tire and left side wheel of the VW air cooled beetle is 6 foot and to widen more of the tracks on a road car is to be either 7 foot or maybe 8 ft for sand dune buggy. Add in lower and upper tubular wishbone letter A control arm independent suspension design by TCI or PORCHE Wolfsburg.

    Beetles are a hard car to chop and make it look "right". Also, it's hard to improve upon what the engineers, artists and factory workers created in Wolfsburg, Germany. I'm a VeeDub guy too, my first car was a 1967 Beetle I bought from my uncle Bill for a hunerd bucks. I sure do miss that car. It's one of a few cars I had that I regret parting with.

    I would love to collaborate with you on my project! I've been wanting to stretch a 4 door 89 Isuzu Trooper and add a pickup bed 23:53 made out of a 2 door Trooper. Then install a late-model 3.5L Isuzu engine & tranny under it.
    I have 5 -89 Troopers for this, but the trick is remaking the back 2 doors to eliminate the rear fender well. Just too many other easier hot rod projects to devote to this one.

    nice to have a sharp blade on a seawall. you made it look clean and easy. not so in real time. Saws all blades bend. they dull quick. My brother and I have done some work on the car. started with a ratty karmin this. getting engine and tranny out was a bitch. wheels were rusted on the drums in back. shortening the shift rod was another pain. required a custom made adjuster

    You could have gotten the front torsion bar extender for $350 on line. It would kick your front tires out like six in inches and that would mean no front fenders but you're going for that anyways. Also it would lower the front up your butt and make your steering tighter. Keep the rear stock height because when you lower the rear the back wheels flare out and makes the bug look stupid in the rear.

    Seeing the body lifted and carried reminded me of my best friend's bachelor party in 75. Two girls came into the tavern to use the restroom. In the time they were in there, four of us guys turned their bug sideways so the bumpers were almost touching the pickups on both sides. Upon leaving, they came back in with an amazed but not amused attitude.
