Default Re: Neat video...Now I want a VW bus..

Check out the pictures of the build, they put an awful lot of man-hours into this project.
Click on the "Projekt" tab an see how it was put together.
The '62 Split-window VW microbus, or "Baby Maker" as it was sometimes reffered to, was a deathtrap vehicle. My first thought was what kind of roll cage did the put in this thing. Your knees were the first line of defence in a frontal collision.
It would roll like a loaf of bread if it went sideways, and it only had like 48 hp, so it was prone to causing roadrage.
Hence the nickname, since it did its best work parked in the woods as a camper.
Having said all that...
