VW T2 1972, building a totally new car

Loving your Fabricating ideas and skills will be watching this build closely

 

Cool build
Id love to see this done using a syncro

 

Top skills there, will be interested to see this finished.

 

Welcome and what a project, can't wait to watch this progress

 

Hi guys! I'm relay glad that you like my project. It's been over 5 years since i've got it. And hopefuly this car will be finished this year.


Transmission... It's from 2.0t forester, 4wd. One of my biggest problems in this project, aspecialy financial. The pinnion and ring are not cheap. I ordered them from subarugears, tolerance washers are original from subaru. I take the housing to sandblaster and then paint it with car laquer

 

Such a cool project. I wish I had even half of your skills.

 

I like this very much! Nice job

 

This is ace ill be watching this one

Ziiga - best person to contact regarding the subaru conversion is Andy at TSR engine conversions. He's a top bloke and makes looms on an exchange basis or can tell you how to modify your own loom. I'm currently planning the same conversion for my bay and he has been a great help

This looks a little interesting...

So will it ride stock height?

 

I got bored with all engine work so i changed my point and started to modifing












Thats all for now. I need to straighten the panel and then weld all the brackets and pieces together

 

I notice that i slept in this topic So lets go on with my project.


We marry chassis and body at the middle of the street, couse my ceeling is way to low.








I weld the whole construcion on the body with chassis in place. First thing to do was engine mounts and steering. Because i thoungt that front mount is realy expensive i made it my self using silentblock from VW passat. And afterall everything went goood.

 

Next major thing was to repair lousy steering rack. I add one more bearing to fixed everything. As shown in pictures..















Over and out =)

 

Loving your work ....... & the number plate

 

Very Very cool project Ziiga

 

i'm Glad that you like it =) if someone has any informations about wiring loom for scoobie... I would be realy greatful for any infos
