1972 turbo bug

So it's time to sell my turbo bug, I need the space and the £ for a future project.
It's a 72 US import so has a balljoint front ( narrowed 2" now ) & factory IRS so it handles really great, especially as I've upgraded the suspension with thicker anti-roll bars and Gaz shocks, bump steer kit, disc front/drum rear & BF Goodrich braided brake hoses The bug has Toyo tyres on all corners.

The body is 100% solid and the paint is good. There is a genuine herrod helper fitted too.
Interior-wise it has Scat Procar seats which are incredibly comfortable and supportive, Flat 4 steering wheel, a Ron Lumous 6 point roll cage, berg shifter, tacho and oil gauges and the best bit is a 8-track player that still works!

Gearbox was rebuilt by John Walklett , it has a T25 input shaft, tall 3rd & 4th coarse tooth gears and and type 2 qauife ATB differential. Type 2 was used to get 100mm flanges to match the thicker than VW porsche 944 driveshafts.

The engine I built myself ( I am a main dealer technician since 1988 and have built many engines over the years ).
It's a 2017cc type1 that has a AGP T3 turbo on a CB manifold, modified MEXI bug inlet manifolds and MS3PRO evo fuel injection supplied by Mario Velotta Jr The Dub Shop , engle tcs20 camshaft, 044 cyl heads machined to get 8.6:1 CR chargecooled inlet with a radiator up front. Currently running 17psi boost which i reckon gives me 200+ bhp from the way the car performs. The engine has no overheating problems even on the UK's rare hot days.
Full engine spec on request for serious enquiries.

Recently MOTd even tho it's exempt, please check the mot history to see that it has no problems.
I'm asking £13500 ono, it's a lot of car and I've spent around 20k building it. I have wanted to build a fast street turbo for along time and that's what I have done. Now it's time to build something else.
I am exhibiting the bug at Tatton Park VW Show on the 4th of August if you want a look and a chat about it or I am located in Stoke-on-Trent for viewing.

For those that are worried by fuel injection- don't be, I will supply wiring diagrams and give a tutorial on it. All done by a laptop. EFI is a lot less trouble than carbs and more reliable imho.


Thanks for looking.
