Wanted.. Ride In 2 Liter Beetle
« on: May 26, 2006, 12:55:06 PM »
Anybody have their stroker beetles running yet? Just wanting a ride for some inspiration and get some ideas as to what kind of set up I should be looking into or saving up for.
If more power is better. Then too much is just enough.
Why do it once when you can do it thrice?

I got two industrial motors off of NTR out of their Zambonis crank nuts and everything. One still had all the propane equipment. ^_^

I've got to of those as well. I think mine came out of Raspberry pickers. One of these days I'll have to tear them down and see if they're rebuildable. Right now there sitting in my barn collecting dust with all the rest of the parts.
