Readers’ Rides:
1972 Volkswagen Beetle
Added on March 4 by sanyarcosean
I picked this up over the winter to save it from being made into a dune buggy. I hope to fix the body, get it running, and use it as a track day/autocross beater. As of now the plan is for a Junk Yard turbo kit. Projected HP to be about 150 at the rear wheels. Not huge amount of power by any means, but certainly enough to make a 1800 lb car fun to drive
