Posted by: Air_Cooled_Nut Aug 18 2005, 10:15 AM

Our shop, the http://www.theddb.com will be traveling up to Canada for their http://www.thesamba.com/vw/shows/. We're taking our shop car, The Bucket a.k.a. The Hooptie. It's a Squareback that was in sad shape so we cut the top off, leaving only the front window frame & glass. Most of the paint is stripped/sanded/grinded off so metal is showing. It's got a 1900+cc Type 3 engine (built by the shop owner, Martin), our alternator kit (originally my design), powered seats and something we're proud of and I think I've got all the R&D worked out for the mounts...our air ride system! Yup, I have designed a BOLT-IN air bag suspension I'm feeling pretty confident with it so we're taking her up to the show. If you're in the area stop by and chat with us
