damn, love synchro's! here's my daily (together with my kadett): ... Hm, that blue looks much darker in those pics than in your logo thread. It´s not that standard transporter blue, is it? Edit: Like that blue one posting higher on that monster truck-ish crew cab? nope it's darker... Not an original T25 color but dove blue from a split/t1 |

What about a genuine Porsche B52 version? I'd love one of these monsters. Project “B 32” initially involved a T2 which was converted at Porsche. The engineers fitted a T2 with a 74 kW/100 h.p. power plant from the VW Porsche 914. The further development of the vehicle was the brain child of Helmuth Bott (1925-1994). Bott was one of the leading engineers at Porsche, and, among other things, had been Board Member with responsibility for Research and Development from 1978 to 1988. The idea at the time was to fit an engine from a Porsche 911 into a T3, so that the VW Bus could follow the fast day stages of experimental and trial vehicles. In the autumn of 1981 specialists began to turn the idea into a reality, and installed the engine from the 911 SC into a T3. At the end of 1983 work started on the construction of nine vehicles, with the production location being the Porsche workshop at Welcherath (near the Nürburgring). The exact number of “B 32” units produced is not known, but it is assumed that there were 15 with Porsche chassis numbers and two with Volkswagen numbers.  |

That's something very special, I had no idea Porsche had officially built any T3s. I would love to see one in the flesh. |

I had this for a short time;  Crewcab by route9autos.co.uk, on Flickr Think I had it for less than a month, used it to move house then sold it on for profit. Saw this earlier as well; Dave |

![]() fair amount of extra camber on the rear wheels That comes through lowering them more than about 60mm, you run out of adjustment - mine looks dead strange from behing, the back wheels are pointing in all sorts of directions. |
