COMPLETED CONVERSIONS : HOW TO / TEMPLATE

[richbaker78]

Because everyone has been doing such sterling work and weve seen a few cars/ vans hit the road since VWKD got up and running we felt it was about time to have a quick reference section to summarise the sometimes lengthy build up threads and provide some key information to those with a similar ride looking for assistance, or those considering a conversion.

How it will work:

create an appropriate descriptive title.....eg:
1971 Bay Camper with 1992 Ford Escort 1800 TD or
1972 Bay Dormobile with 1984 VW Scirocco 1800 GTI

then

COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING AS FULLY AS POSSIBLE.
(IDEALLY KEEP TO SAME FORMAT FOR EASY REFERENCE)

Vehicle & model:
Year:
Engine details: (include donor vehicle model and year or special mods required to fit)
MPG
1/4 mile time
0-60
Top speed
Cooling system details - (eg belly mounted rad. /special features)
Other non conversion mods: (eg brakes etc)
Approx cost of conversion.

Pictures
Please add pictures of the completed item, including engine and cooling shots.

Personal details:
> Link to PM or email if your happy for people to contact you.
> Location
> Core suppliers/ links that you found useful.


PLEASE REMEMBER THOUGH -THIS IS FOR CONVERSIONS THAT ARE COMPLETED (IE RUNNING) ONLY - ONCE YOU HAVE POSTED, THE THREAD WILL BE LOCKED SO ITS LIKE AN INDEX/ RESOURCE.

IF YOU NEED TO CHANGE/UPDATE ANYTHING THEN YOU WILL NEED TO CONTACT A MODERATOR (ME, JP OR COVIN)

If you think weve missed something people may want to know - then run it by us and we can add it to the list.
