 THIS IS A 1 OF A KIND CUSTOM BUILT 1970 CHOPPED TOP VW BUG. VW Rat Rod. Chopped Top body on custom chassis. Straight axle front end. New Vega steering box. 8. 8 Rear. ew Coilover Rear suspension. Custom aluminum Fuel Cell. All new 4 wheel disc brakes with willwood master cylinders. New aluminum Radiator. Lokar shifter. Engine is Rebuilt 307 out of a 1970 chevelle. Has turbo 350 trans. Zoomies (exhaust) withHarley baffles in them baffles for exhaust. Car has glass split windshield and tinted plexiglass side windows and rear window. There is no glass in either door ! Has Tach. temp gauge. oil pressure gauge . and volt gauge. Car runs cool even on the hottest days in stop & go traffic with electric fan (on a toggle switch) Motor hold constant oil pressure and starts and runs flawlessly. Still has 2 barrel carb on it so it's actually good on gas. Also has fuel gauge. Headlights. taillights and brakelights are all working. (but there are NO turn signals. I use my arm out the window). This thing is a blast to drive. street legal. and plated and insured a s a 1970 Volkswagen.   Diamond plated aluminum door panels and lower trim panels. Removable steering wheel. push button ignition. Clear (see through) distributor. tunnel ram air cleaner. I also just put the new chrome wheels on it last fall. Fuel cap is located on the roof with hose running into rear fuel cell (located under rear trunk lid) and you don't get any fumes from it inside car. Satin black paint with custom pin stripping. This car gets more looks and comments than any other car I've had over the years (and at 61 I've had a few). There is a cutout in the dash for stereo but I never installed one. Also has a hidden air horn for fun. On smooth roads the car actually handles pretty well . but on bumpy roads. you will feel the bumps. The suspension is good . it's just that the cars so light. My wife and I have really enjoyed driven it to local car shows and to get ice cream on Sun evenings. but we just sold our home so am sellin everything and startin over when we figure out where we gonna live. otherwise I wouldn't even be sellin it. I hope the pics tell ya everything else you need to know but if not please feel free to email. or call and i'll do my best to answer you (Ron @ 810-923-0397). I also have a 20 Ft. dovetail enclosed trailer I will offer to new owner if interested (Not part of auction). I'm located in Brighton Mi. 48116 near Ann Arbor or 45 minutes outside of Detroit. Thanks for lookin and please see my 100% feedback record which I have worked have at maintaining and plan on keeping it that way. so please bid with confidence and if you win auction and feel I have misrepresented car I will happily release you from your obligation to follow through with purchase. This car is not perfect and that's why I have listed it as a RatRod. The other things I want to mention is there is a small trans leak where the dipstick tube goes into the trans. which I'm hoping to find time to repair before auction ends. The trans will also begin to slip a little but only after a long time of stop and go on really Hot days. Last year at Woodward Cruise it did it to me and it was in the 90's that day. but hasn't done it since and I just drove it about 35 miles this evening. I do have an extra  C3 trans with 3500 rpm stall converter that I will throw in with car. I have several more pics if interested or can take pics of anything in particular if you would like. I might be able to assist in delivering car but prior arrangements would have to made as I would have to borrow a truck (just sold my truck and golf cart to my neighbor).

 SORRY. FORGOT TO MENTION. ALL PIN STRIPPING AND CROSS PISTONS ARE HAND BRUSH PAINTED BUT THE NAME BANNER (2nd CHANCE) IS A DECAL THAT IS REMOVABLE SO IF YOU WANTED TO CHANGE THE NAME I COULD ARRANGE TO HAVE MY DECAL/SIGN GUY MAKE YOUR OWN PERSONAL BANNER. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE BIDS AND PHONE CALLS THIS FAR. IT REALLY IS A COOL CAR AND TRUST THE NEW OWNER WILL ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I HAVE. MY WIFE VIDEOED IT RUNNING THE OTHER NIGHT WHEN WE WENT FOR ICE CREAM AND TRYIN TO FIGURE OUT HOW I CAN DOWNLOAD IT SO YA'LL CAN HEAR IT TOO.
