VW UTE

Here's a few photos of the VW ute I'm building. The chassis has been shorted and tubbed, it will run a mid mounted Top Fuel Hemi, and is painted a colour that sort of looks like Tiger Gold.

looks redy for a wheel standing comp.

Still got a fair way to go, thats only a temperary engine. I have to build the motor for it and wire it up.

Ooh yeah, time for some insanity . I like it .

I LIKE THAT, GREAT JOB..

WOW looking good so far.

That is nuts! Looking forward to the finished product.

Wild!

I'm thinkin an extension on the injector hat to get it up above roof height and into the fresh air stream.

You gunna run the body sides?

That's crazy checkmate. I hope there's a hole in the cab floor so the driver can see where he's going while it's standing on it's back wheels.

Hey wasn't there once a draggin' vw called "Little Red Wagon"?

The Little Red Wagon was an early sixties Dodge forward control Pick-up run by Bill Golden.

I think JoHan did a kit of it, sure I've got at least one somewhere.

George Stewart used to run a wheelstanding VW at Riverside called the 'Draggin Waggin' but it was bug based and VW powered.

No sides Carps, but the engine will definately get an addition or two ,to make it a bit taller and bulkier. Was also thinking of adding a Top Fuel style wing and supports to the back of the tray.

WTF!!!! That is so cool, that motor would nearly suck the back window out!! Love it Rob, great concept and the colour suits it to the ground. can't wait to see more pics. Keep us posted. Cheers
