My grandmother was cleaning her garage (which has been basically just a storage area since my grandfather passed a few years ago) and came across this. My grandfather was a diesel mechanic from the 60s through to the early 2000s for Cummins, so I'm assuming he had this for novelty's sake. I don't remember him ever mentioning owning a '41 or '42 Chevy of any sort.

Caught the Targa West Tarmac Rally / Classics On The Park in Perth today, put my GT4 into the show and witnessed some good tight racing in the city centre.
I have ~40 short video clips to sort through soon as well.

People insist on overbreeding these poor cars because they're "cute", without thinking of the quality of life they'll have. Adopt an old bus from your local shelter junkyard instead.

I was walking around and I spotted this. I barely noticed it, all the details are so well-done and subtle. Obviously it's a Silvia front-end on a 240SX coupe, but it also has a 5 lug hub conversion, Z32 brakes, and S14 OEM alloy wheels, the net effect being that there's a ton going on here that most people would have no idea wasn't stock because all the visible parts still say Nissan on them. I have to love how low-key it is, and I can only assume interesting things are happening under the hood.

Looks like the owner just gave it a Silvia front end and added some performance mods to bring it in line with the Japanese Silvia. Pretty standard mods for a 240sx in the US. It likely either has an SR20 swap under the hood or a stock KA, depending on how crafty the guy is with emissions in CA.

Sileighty is a hatch with a Silvia front end. Onevia is a coupe with flip-up lights from the 180sx (how they all came in the US).

This looks good actually i dont know why they badge it vw though. Like it looks good and unique and you dont need to call attention to the mod and where it came from imo.

As far as Type 2's go, the huge round VW logo in the center is as much a part of the styling as the headlights and the trim.

Well thats my point it doesnt look like a vw bus it looks good as a custom whatever it is. It doesnt work as a vw bus because a vw bus looks much better imo.
