Jinx’s slammed 67 split.
Posted on May 17th, 2007 Members' RidesBought by jinx and kel in 2002 to accommodate the expected family!
In pretty much the guise it is now - well externally any how!Since the pictures were taken a few things have changed!
Internally it has a homemade camping interior based on a ‘Bay’ Devon Moonraker with a 2 ring hob, grill and oven. It also has a propex gas heating system, for those cold camping nights!
It has up front:-
Dropped king and link pin spindles,
Creative Engineering adjusters,
Porsche vented disk brakes,
Porsche 356c 4 1/2″ x 15 wheels shod in 165/50/15 tiresAt the back it has received;-
A ’straight axle’ conversion (1500 bug box),
Porsche disks again and ‘944 steel wheels 185/65/15 all pushed by a standard configuration type 4 1800 built by Andy Clarke from the FLF4′S VW club in Telford.It’s been lowered, as nesisated by the removal of the reduction boxes during the gearbox conversion and currently stands at a towering 63″ to the gutter!!!
Rev counter and temperature gauge have been added to keep an eye on things that go squish and bang!
An alloy side step and a Creative Engineering roof rack have been added for practicalityIt’s currently enjoyed by all the family for holidays and weekend breaks as well as a few VW shows
Future plans include some new duct tape for the door bottoms!
One of the lowest/coolest/rattiest Split buses you’ll ever see, simply……..awesome
