Description
1963 VW Beetle, never wrecked, heavily modified, which has had the top chopped 7", front end extended 8" with an extension kit, suicide doors, designed and built as a small stake bed pick-up. It was designed for an electric conversion kit designed specifically for this year beetle and sold by a company called EV West(.com) check it out on-line when you can. The kit has everything needed to complete the swap except the boxes to hold the batteries.
The chop was well done with attention to the compound curves of the roofline and the use of original VW metal throughout. Thoughtful effort in re-enforcing the electric motor mounts as well as the front end extention. Doors close with quality latch hardware and designed for electric poppers to open. New floor pans were installed and the heater channels modified to fit. dash is unmolested and still has the original factory paint with speedo and steering wheel.
This is a dream I will probably never complete as old age has not been so kind to my body. It is, to me, an astounding piece of craftsmanship and I am hoping someone may see the potential as I do.
This is a rolling project with front and rear disc brakes, 5 lug GM bolt patterns and gutted interior.
Take a look at the photos, I have more but have to figure out how to upload from phone to ad.
To the right person, it could be a beautiful ratrod street killer due to its light weight and instant torque electric motor.
I calculated its 0 to 60 at about 4 seconds, depending on which gear you use, and with that power, capable of humiliating any but the most expensive supercars. Imagine the surprise when a challenger gets eaten by a german bug!
