b*****d chassis is a left hooker...didnt realise when i brought it got properly shafted on that ...atleaest its only a cpl minor modifications to make it rhd

that is a bummer, at least you found out now before you got in to it. nothing worse than having to undo work.

What's wrong with a left hooker??

Left hookers are cool!!

I wish I had spent more time trying to source a lhd chassis before I started my build!

i need to be rhd so i can see properly to overtake stuff

Ooohhh it sounds like we're getting in to the realms of if it ain't lowered with a narrowed bean running on original BRMs in the beetle world......

Hardly, I just wanted to build as authentic a Meyers Manx as I could.

That's fair enough,when you have a target planned out you have to go all out to achieve it or you'll not be happy

well i live in good old england where we drive on the left so as stated before i need to be able to see to overtake...i dont plan on being slow  ....my ratrod i built was 100bhp (ish) went off the clock at 100mph...more the happy with that...that was from a twinport 1600...the engine i have is fabled to be one but as yet its unknown....started life as an AR1300 twinport but a previous owner rebuilt it and fitted a dizzy with a restrictor in it...the guy a got it off is quite clued up in bug engines and said that he thinks its a 1600...but even if it is only a 1300 the AR lumps push about 50bhp, same as a bog standard 1600 so summin to work with as i drive

my ratrod wen i first finished it...was a proud day lol...simple things plz simple minds eh

pickin my shell up on monday so i can finally start putting all these bits ive got together  ...dont know whether i should post a picture...mite be bad luck

I like your rod I'm planning something similar with my spare beetle
