Every time I see an Econoline I think of The Mod Squad.
curse word I'm old.
Uncle had one a long time ago. Aircraft sheet metal worker. Smoothed over the whole front and put a tall Merc grille in the middle. Had to look at the tail lights to know what it was. ;D

Cool pics of the Beetle dragster - I take it the Bug looks a bit different now? Any current pics?? Thanks ;D The race car looks very similar from the outside but has had a lot of changes made in the last year to the engine, etc. The car should be out at Thunderball if anyone is planning to be there and we're hoping for some really fast passes. If y'man is to be believed the car's now capable of sub 10s I also have some photos of the econoline on my phone - I'm just waiting for a couple of ebay auctions to end so I can free up some space on my Muchos account and I'll post them

Don't I get a say in this? The van needs a LOT of welding to get through an MOT. Looks good enough doesn't it? Fraid a life of patching has taken its toll. The big girder like parts of the chassis are currently more cream cheese than metal and the sills are shot to hell at the front. other than that it's fine lol

Daaaamn! You driving that Tash? Wow, that's gotta be some engine! I think the last time I saw you on the track, you were pulling high teens in the yellow bug? LMAO!!! Yeah I shall be driving it, I drove it last year at Thunderball which was the last time either me or the car was out. It ran a best of 11.98 before I lunched the engine. It was a shame really, I was just getting into the swing of things, had my license signed off, and was on the way to some balls out passes. This is going to be the year though, the engine's solid now and I'm DYING to get back behind the wheel!!!
