You can freely edit your posts within five minutes. Urbee is radically different from the Diablo, so OK.

I was thinking something like what the Blackjack Zero uses might fit (with it's Weber carb laid back over the transaxle), but it's really not much lower than a Porsche/Subaru boxer.

A lot shorter though. Hey, the Urbee is a reverse trike, how about this (scaled down)?

Edit: ...since nobodies posted in the last few hours:

I've been thinking about doing this to my Beetle, but in Lexan since Studebaker glass would be expensive.
