@raptor5900 No. It's a 73 super made in germany.

Type in "V8 Super Beetle" into google. Pretty much every link you see is a thread about my beetle / places I posted my build.
I basically shorted it in the middle, chopped most of the front of the frame off and well as quite a bit in the back. The width is the stock width, but I had to use 4.5" widened rear fenders to cover the back tires only.

@78camarob It's basically a bug body mounted to a shortened S10 frame with a fabricated floor.

@flip46 I bought it from "S&W Racers cars" dot com. It was about $375 shipped to my work place. Yes, it was made for a classic stock beetle. I had to modify it to work with my application.
