Karmann Ghia Porsche Engine
 

Considering my recent fascination with Bader Racing's Karmann Ghia, I am attempting to recreate something similar, although not as aggressive. I am putting a 1972 2.4 engine into the car as well as a 901 gearbox. We are currently in the process of working out the suspension as well as the brake and wheel package. Pictures will come soon.

have a look at mine. Type 34 Karman with 2.4 mfi 6. Fun to drive. Runs 15's on the quarter. Currently runs a VW single side plate gearbox

Sounds great... Have a look at the progress on mine:

I got a chance to drive this one a couple of times:

What a fun little car. I wish I had gotten a chance to track it before it was sold but such was not my luck. It's in Texas these days, or at least it was last I heard. Here's some details of the build from the same site:
