super cool,, super clean looks!

in general i don't like the look of hotrods, but i love the effort and workmanship that goes into building one! stuff like this
http://www.popularhotrodding.com/edi.../photo_09.html

im guessing that them brake/clutch res's are one offs customs, and as i know a little about machining, i know how long it would take me to make them on a manual lathe!


i love American hotrod on sky aswell! the way teh alumatub body was made is just pure art to me! to myself its more skill then a painting or music! maybe i appreciate it as i havent got a single artistic bone in my body!

off the charts lee

To have hair cuts like you have, you must have some type of artistic feel in you. Even if its not all good

bit of a myth mate tbh is actuallly a very hard conversion and rarely done.due to the fact a aircooled porsche lump is a flat 6 and flat 4 technogly is very impressive nowadys.theres a vw bus in the latest volksworld magazine runnin a 2.1 turbocharged flat 4 motor making 220bhp and is a reliable daily drive..that impressed the shit outa me.
but i am a sad

Awesome! Was expecting a cossie or something

I'm sure someone pointed this out though, the journalist says it's in Germany but that's not, it's Spa

I'm turning into one of the geeks.
