Popular Post 64valiant Posted November 30, 2017 Popular Post Posted November 30, 2017 Right-e-o. Cause I didn't have enough projects on the go I thought I would start another one. Well I kinda gotta start another one to sell a few more of what I've got. So I brought the 1st one so I can show case what I'm going to sell. And hey it's a car. It's oldschool and yeah it will be slammed. So without further ado here is my 1st split window kombi. Me for scale @Archetype for scale So the plan is either find a little go kart chassis and engine or maybe a quad. Make it work keep it slammed and get it ready before kumeu. The guy who is making them for me is going to put a mobility scooter in his but I'm going to want it hide as much as possible I think. Have spoken to Brent and we are going to make some window stickers up to make it look more realistic. But hey here is the beginning of something cool. 20 Quote
64valiant Posted November 30, 2017 Author Posted November 30, 2017 So I'm going to be selling the body's. I'm Yet to work out a price as I need to do a few other things eg make stickers for the windows and lights and find out what they are going to be worth to add them to the final price. Once I have them sorted will have a better idea on price bit probably around the 1600 mark including gst. The roof on them also lift up. 2 Quote
M Night Shamalayan Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 So many possibilities for this!! - Turn it into a chillybin - put a bbq in it - put a squab on the top and turn it into a nifty bench seat - toy box for kids The best idea is to put a motor in it and slam it though 2 Quote

Also a box for pillows and pool toys for out side. So much radness 1 Quote
waspman Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 There is one of these in the UK that has been attached to a lambretta as a sidecar, I had a magazine somewhere with an article on it, looked pretty well done. 2 Quote

Archetype Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Shit, the amount of things that just about fall into your lap is amazing. Nice skinny tyres like that should make fitting/turning inside the body easier. 4 Quote
Shakotom Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Just need to add about 12 degrees of camber to the rear wheels for true VW ness and narrow that front end 2 Quote
64valiant Posted December 18, 2017 Author Posted December 18, 2017 Yea going to need to get the welder out that's for sure. Narrow the front like no tomorrow and think I'm going to have to shorten the body. Waiting on my sticker guy to finish up with what he's doing. Prob get it when I'm back from Xmas holiday. @Archetype....... Scrolled the net heaps found some kook looking ones. Keen to put a rag top on mine. 4 Quote
Truenotch Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 I'm keen to help out with this project by the way. Man it's cool. I also feel like @Kimjon could have some quality input. Quote
Kimjon Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 As long as it has cup holders somewhere on the inside, i don't think you can go wrong 2 1 Quote
