A good running 2.7 came my way at a price I could afford and couldn’t refuse. Soooo, I bought it. Then, I was like, “what can I stick it in?” I already have my other 74 with a 2.7 CIS, the bus already has a big flat 6, I don’t own any ac VW to mess with, so I searched for a body. Found a well priced example close to me. Actually, only surface rust so far. 74 with parts, minus windshield, needs area forward of windshield repaired as PO did not do so correctly (solder and rivet, but good metal in place to weld). So, I plan to do some things with this. Some Evil things (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Sort of. I built the engine from the crank up from a 74 targa 2.7, changed it to SC cams, modified the CIS to fit (not much work for that). Rebuilt the transmission, brakes, etc. Body work is by Scotty, and interior will have to wait. Its forerunner was body, paint, and upholstery in TJ, Mexico.


This car will likely be satin black, roller, might flare it to handle the engine mods I plan.
