New project

I bought a new project yesterday, will drive up to OK Saturday to bring it home. It is a '75 Bradley GT, a kit car on a VW pan ( bradleygt.com ). I am going to have to sell off some stuff (a complete VW pan, two engines and a '72 body) to make room for it in my garage ..... may try Ebay for the first time. I am planning some major custom work on the body and look forward to working with fiberglass.

There's one that 'lives' at the body shop up the street.

Cool looking little car, and it sounds like you are familiar platform.
Kinda like an Opel GT, remember those, with "the crank"?
Congratulations, and have fun with your new project!

Well...... no?
I was mistaken, actually they look like a mini Vette.
I don't know what it is I see up the street, but they look like this.

Get the bus motor for it and you can pull wheelies with it!! My brother put the big
bus motor in a super beetle and he could pull wheelies and race all kinds of cars
most of them backed down when they saw him pull his wheels up in second gear!!
