Thanks.

I'd still like to see the whole drivetrain and suspension forward of the frame bulkhead swapped into an old VW Beetle. But it's not going to happen to the Superbeetle, although I have a Baja Bug I'd donate to the cause if someone wants to do it. Much better than hanging an electric motor on the VW transaxle. It even shares the four-lug bolt pattern for the wheels.

Those were import, not the V4 MLM? That's my current interest.
