I wish I'd be able to drive what I worked this entire day on. A very extraordinary VW Van built as a company car by my uncle.
1989 VW Transporter 3 Syncro Van
Subaru Impreza 2.2 Litre DOHC block
Subaru Impreza 2.2 Litre DOHC head
Subaru Impreza 2.5 Litre crankshaft
Subaru Turbo
Shortened 2.2 pistons coming from Japan
Self-adapted gearbox and front-differential (32:7)
LPG installation
Welded extra supports in roof and chassis for extra strength.
Porsche 911 ceramic brake disks
Porsche 911 calipers for ceramic disks
Adapted and customized Mitsu EVO VIIII suspension
Stunning paint job
Bucket seats
Customized instrument panel (adding a dozen of new meters for everything like oil temp and pres. and many more)
Blood,sweat and tears
This is bhind a few weeks but still fun to watch:

Today we fixed the electrics.I must have seen 300 different wires today. We use a double VW cable system connected to the Subaru's electronics going towards the dash. Installing a LPG system made it even more difficult to figure out
