At my last job a few years ago, I saw a 52 (?) window VW bus with a 993 engine in it. It also had many parts of 993 interior in it and the suspension and wheels from a 2000 996. I remember the guy driving into the parking lot. I know right away what it was. It was BEAUTIFUL! I think it was built by fabcar in Carmel, IN? It was featured in one of the P-car magazines recently. I talked to the guy forever. He kept trying to get away but I had so many questions. That thing sounded wonderfull. He told me that he had gotten it up to 150mph. There's nothing like driving a giant loaf of bread at 150mph. I think he said they built it for a client (probably in Cali) for "a couple" hundred thousand. Man I wish I had that kind of disposable income. I also wish I had had my camera with me that day!
