You'd think it would light a fire under me.

I have a friend that has a whole boneyard full of Beetles and I'm trying to talk him into building a rat. It would have the whole windshield and top of the dash cut away and the hood moved back 6" to replace the top of the dash. Flip-up racing windscreens and hairpin roll bars. There would be two 12' long pieces of timber bamboo that would be half-rounds on the doortops and curve to a boatail making a 17' long car. 3rd passenger rumble seat in the wooden or bamboo rear deck.

It's hard to get people to do all the work so I don't have to do it all myself.
