Re: [T3] engine

It has been done, at least once.  A while back on Hot VW they had
a feature article on a Square that had been converted to a pickup
with big block (455 cu.in.) V8 mounted midship in the box.  This
was not a "sleeper".  It was heavily modified, including '39 Ford
headlights grafted into the fenders (looked pretty nice
actually), chopped top, pick-up conversion, scallopped paint,
etc.  Definitely a member of the DARK SIDE gang.

I will look up the issue and details when I get home.  I scan a
couple of pictures, too.  If anyone is interested, let me know
at:

Later,
