Topic: Crazy Car Build - VW Golf / Rabbit 'Caddy'
I follow any number of mad scientist car builds, but few come close to this
Take an old and abused Golf (Rabbit) pickup 1.6 Dismal.
with a lot of rust
Obtain a VR6 Engine
That is 'known not to fit'
Add a 4-motion gearbox (for 4wd) action.
and associated rear axle (which is way too wide)
add a 'big ass' turbo
and make your own head spacer to lower the compression a tad
and break out the welder in your front yard........
This is one insane project.
