Aaron was coming down to buy a bus a couple months ago....so I had him buy this for me and deliver it. Aarons been such a good friend picking up and delivering multiple items for me in the past. He also donated a beetle floor pan for this project. I plan to keep it pretty simple...nothing to complicated. Its an early sears rascal body. So far Ive shortened the pan patched up some holes...and chased down a transmission and front beam. I still need a vin tag/title if anyone has one let me know. I also scored some parts from randy and franks shop clean out they did...so thanks to all those guys who have hooked me up with parts/shipping thus far
the body!

or I have this motor I could use

You could just put an outboard motor on that tub and call it a boat

cool man! If you run in to needing some bit and peices let me know I've got some stuff layin around you can have, if it will help!...
Re: Non bus project: Doom Buggy!
It looks like a cool project and there's been a big resurgence in tubs for some reason lately. Be careful about running it on a Beetle title- it's not legal in Ohio. Some cops will let it go as long as the VIN matches, but some will tow it. The right way is to take the tub and receipts when it's done to the Highway patrol and get a title issued. BTDTGTTS several times years back, if you have all your ducks in a row it's no big deal.

Re: Non bus project: Doom Buggy!
yeah im not too worried about it...i can make that part happen easily I think.
I just need it to warm up some so I can get some work done.
I need to have this thing ready for the warm weather in the spring

It would be easy to put in side curtains and have heat, making it a 3 season ride from 1 season....
