Nice car! It's great that you are posting the progress on your build! I think we can all pick up new ideas!

May I ask what fenders you are using? Brand size, and how they were widened (from inside our outside). Do you have more photos of the fenders?

Thanks!

Thanks for the nice comments.

The fenders are from Kerscher ... www.kerschertuning.de .... the best polyester fenders I know. The fronts are 2 cm widend, the rear 6 cm.
The're widend form the inside.

Greetings Wiebrand

hi ive been watchin your car come together i dont know much about racing and i would like to know more and get into it i have some good ideas of a super fast super beetle and i wanted to ask a few things
the first thing is what are the holes in the rear 1/4 panels and wher are you going to put your gas tank because it thought of moving it forward to improve handleing

thanks,bow

kakarottt October 11th 2005 23:09

If anything of my car is not clear, just ask.
The holes in the rear panels are for the airintakes (from which I've posted pics in this topic => some of the earlier pages). They feed the air to the engine bay.

The gas tank is staying at his original place (I still use the original tank). Maybe if I had buyed an aluminium one I would mount it more forward. (mij batterie is going to the front).

Hope that I've helped you.

Oops...

I see now that I hadn't posted that pics of the airintake here... so here we go;

An mold is maked from wood for the "Remelle" air-intake.

The mold. So the gabs for the intake are the same size and on the same hight on both sides.

From the mold drawed on the body.
