Yea, it could really use some headrests, it's got a "long-rod" 383ci over-cammed for auditory effect and a TH 400 automatic (I know) and a 411 rear gear, so 0-100 doesn't take long, but going 100 seems less than wise with its shortish wheelbase and available traction.I've never liked the term "turns heads" but it turns heads, then they point.
The VW belongs to a friend that bought it new in 72' it's at my house for a rebuilt engine and trans, that despite my best efforts ended up costing exactly twice what he paid for the Bus new.
I sent the trans out and went through the engine myself, taking it from 1.7L to 2.0L with hydraulic lifters, breaker-less ignition, rev limiter, platinum plugs and a cylinder-head temp gauge, it should outlast him, he's getting up there, I think his son will be driving it someday.
