    Welcome, there used to be a sleeper VW beetle around. Looked fairly stock, just a little wider tires in back and dark tinted glass. When you opened the door you could see the back half of a built 327. The driver sat in the back seat. Basically a tube chasis, he did use the beetle front end. I'll bet it got hot in there though. Never did see it run personally, but heard it was bad ass. There is alot of good guys around here, you can pick up quite a bit. I know I have. Good luck on your project, and again Welcom Aboard....
