The clean, classic styling of this 1966 Volkswagen Beetle is
enhanced to a new level of crisply defined simplicity that will
make any VW enthusiast take notice. The deep and glossy silver
paint is contrasted with brilliant chrome and bright trim and the
running boards are smooth and painted to match the body. The
narrowed front beam and dropped front spindles with disc brakes
create a lowered stance. A pair of wide fiberglass rear fenders
accommodate deep 15-inch smoothie wheels wrapped with 235/60R15 in
the rear with narrow 145R15 tires in the front. The black painted
wheels are capped with stylish chrome Wolfsburg hubcaps.

replaced by a little pull up cubby for the battery and other
storage. A nice new carpet kit, very positive feeling EMPI shifter,
newer pedals with roller accelerator and a wood-rimmed Grant GT
steering wheel all look great. The painted dash has been smoothed
and fitted with high-quality VDO instrumentation that includes
speedometer, tachometer, turbo boost, oil and fuel gauges. The
clean front trunk has been fitted with a new fuel tank and an
orderly and cleanly installed wiring system.
The 2386cc engine on this Beetle is very substantially modified
with a magnesium case set up for the stroker, upgraded D.M.S. 86mm
crankshaft, Scat H beam rods, a T4 turbo capable of 20 plus pounds
of boost working into upgraded C.B. Performance wedge port cylinder
heads, dual Dellorto 48 mm carburetors jetted by competition
engineering and much, much more. Power is transferred through a
4-speed manual transmission with a lightened flywheel, Chromoly
gland nut and Kennedy pressure plate. Walk around the back of this
Silver Beetle and you will know this car means business.
