Hi Dave. Good to hear from you. My brother was editor of VW Trends for a while, then a contributor for Hot VW. He had a couple of good VW hotrods over the years.
Back in the early 1970s a VW mechanic in Chico had one that would outrun most of the V8 iron of the day. Light and turned up as far as he could - it ran in the high 12s as I recall. The friend that was the original owner of my Shelby never would race him, and added the headers and big carb and so on just in case he ever ran into him on the Esplanade.
Pictures would be cool.... Welcome aboard!Tim -
