Nice one, Neil. Is it the 3-speed or 4-speed Sporto? Keep us posted on your project.

Subaru 2.5 into a full automatic

Anyone have the name of that new company that makes bell housings for the VW Bus gearbox or vanagon automatic.

Our parts chaser 356 needs more power, and I can't shift and drive while holding my cool and refreshing beverage.
