Great thread, interesting project. I'm reading several references to VW chassis and such, I thought I'd offer up that I am a bit of a 'subject matter expert' when it comes to the old air-cooled chassis, and modifications. I've build several VW based torsion bar suspension racing cars, have consulted on several others, and have a good handle on what works, and what parts are available. I also know many sensible fabrication techniques that myself and several of my VW racing friends use that reduce the need for having to 'reinvent the wheel', keep costs down, while keeping it safe. Just throwing it out there...
