    Wonder if that would fit in my former '72 Bug?:rofl: :lol:
    Of course, I would've ditched the rear deck lid and surrounding sheet metal like my Bro had on a '68 Baja style bug......
    :thumbs:

    Sure is a good looking motor, Link :yes:

    Oh come on people. It's rather obvious.

    It's going in that golf cart. That's why they're pictured together. :rolleyes: :D

    No slouch with the old bullet. Schmidt builds some stout pieces should be fun. My uncle and I used to drag race (not at the level you are though) and dirt track race but the latter drained us dry like they say how do you make a million dollars racing? Start with 10 million. I really miss it we have plans to build a turbo top sportsman car someday.
