That's where I was before, excepting the Beetle transmission mount holes run fore-and-aft so they would be at the front face of the bracket. If the brackets were inverted, it could be just a piece of angle iron.
Everything is upriver in a barn. I need to get out there in the next few days to transplant a cherry tree, so I will get some measurements then—distance from the axle centerline to the mount horizontally and vertically on both the MGR and a Beetle tranny. That will establish the relationship of the holes. Then I just build a bracket around those holes.
I know it fits in there, it's just a matter of pinning down the tolerances.
