Vehicle Detail
Here she is, the baddest bug you'll ever find. It's titled as a 1968 VW Bug, but its so far from that its crazy. Car was built by Aftermath Hotrods in Florida, you can find build threads of his Volksrods all over the web. Its as Rat Rod as you can get. The body is ugly in a good way and give the car tons of character, and gets it tons of attention. Its a hit at every show, and I can't even take a drive to the gas station without people taking pictures and talking to me about it. Its a full tube chassis, the bug body is chopped 7 inches and stretched. If you ever decided you didn't want this body, it could be cut off and any other modified to fit. Its a twin turbo forged 383 stroker with 9:1 compression. It was supplied as a crate motor by Tristar engines. It has an 1103 cam, procomp intake, delrin spacer, demon blow thru 750cm carb with 90 front/93 rear jets and 2.5 power valve. Fresh 700R4 w/ overdrive, tall Lokar shifter (badass), 10 bolt rear end, mustang II rack, new electric fuel pump, new radiator, new fans, new starter, new battery, all new gauges (Tach, volts, boost, wideband, water temp, oil pressure) new Nextech LED headlights, new brakes, and brake booster. Custom air ride system with 4 link rear, viar compressor and tank, car lays frame. Right now its controlled by a shop air setup, but I have a Little Larrys manual FBSS valve block thats included. Interior is modified bug dash, custom reversed removable steering wheel, and Ulysses Seat Co. Bomber seats (really completes the rat look) with 5 point harnesses. Over all, the car is awesome. Its fast as hell, but it needs to be fine tuned, it runs really rich at my elevation. I'm 6 feet tall and I fit comfortably, but with the brake booster placement I have to drive two footed. I was going to get Wilwood remote mounted reservoirs, but never got around to it as it doesn't bug me to drive this way. The manual valve block and air gauges are included they just need to be installed. Feel free to ask any questions or for more pics. The car is listed in a few publications so I reserve the right to end bidding at any time.
