My car will have porsche turbo brakes, wheels, and suspension. It will have widened fenders, an electric rear wing and a full roll cage. All trim will be shaved and there will be carbon fiber everywhere. Sounds like a pretty fast car, Huh. Not really as it will only have 80 to 90 hp for a long while untill I can afford my turbo type 4 motor. But it sure will look fast.

I have already seen the decklid on a beetle. The tranny was done in a subaru powered standard from Austrailia. I think I can remember seeing the door handles and side view mirrors on a bug but I can't be sure. Now you got me thinking.:silly: :silly:

light knob,
window regulators,
seat belts,
floor mats,
suspension,
trailing arms,
brakes,
brake lines,
axles,
gas tank,
window washer bottle,
power steering pump and/or accesories,
arm rests,
dash trim,
side markers,
horn,
wire harness,
third brake light,
power window button....

How about the McDonalds bag found under the passenger seat of a 993 that you saw....I'm pretty much out of ideas?!?!?!?!!!

How about grafting the whole roof onto a beetle.:silly: That would be the next step after chopping the top. I've never seen that done before.

How about a complete 911 front end from in front of the doors foward grafted onto a beetle body. You would get all the good suspension and brakes. Am I getting closer.
