And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
It's a 4 cyl. type III VW engine. Remember the original fastbacks & squarebacks from mid 60s til about 1970? The same basic motor as beetle/bus with different sheet metal for cooling & a rear mounted fan. They had twin single barrel solex carbs until 1967, from '68 they were fuel injected.
Would you give up the orange beast for that commuter? You could ram other cars in traffic with this one without remorse - not with the orange streak.

ReplyDeleteLooks like a budget Big Daddy Roth custom!
ReplyDeleteLooks like it would be kind of fun to buzz around in until...MURDER HORNET! Not sure how you'd roll down the window....
ReplyDeleteI don't believe that is a VW engine. Looks like 6 plug wires on the distributor.

ReplyDeletecould be a Porsche 911 engine swap. Subaru engines are a pretty common swap, too.
