For Sale: Pcb GreenBay: 69 porsche themed: WBX2.1, Mag rims

[Pcb GreenBay]

Just a few words and pics to my latest aircooled love

Bought it at Mantorp Sweden 08 and had very little welding and work done to it.
Service theme deviced with my fellow nuts'n'bolt mate Danborn ..(orange 68 on here too)

Wheels are early Volvo with center cut out and special bolts done up.
Front beam made adjustable and rear lowered and also cut into the plates.

Engine straight 1500 Single port but am currently installing a 2165ccm into it.
Just for a couple of weeks testing and so on.
After that its winter-work-time and the plans are more or less .. and loosely ...
and in no order what so ever

New interior
new stereo custommade to look old ..
CU 6 rib 2.0 Gearbox
2165ccm type 1 being shined up somewhat and J-pipes changed to heather boxes
Drop spindles with Zero -offset and just perhaps discbrakes in front.
Straightening out the right rear corner and bumper.
Changing quite a few rubber seals..
Welding in a new support at the front gearbox mount.

And tonnes of other cool and funne bits too..

Pics .....


See yaa, Peter

It's said before... Very nice photos and bus!

 

[andewilson]

love the rims mate. they look fantastic. i love the effort of trying something a little different with wheels. polishing, detailing, adapting, banding, nothing like a set of one offs to know that no one else has a bus that looks the same as yours

 

[Pcb GreenBay]

Great images,

for the nerds out there

I have been having a play around in photoshop and you can actually get a similar effect if you use the 'High Pass' Filter... :mrgreen:

 

[Pcb GreenBay]

When it comes to pics , photoshop are absolutely your friend..
I believe that its just one of the things that Paul & Helene does to them ..

There's a photo shoot on its way for Total911 mag with Danborn and i and a bunch of porsches , the bus and lots more cool stuff
So wait and see what they come up with ... LOL

Se ya

 

[AxlFoley]

loving the photos there are some stunning cars there!

love the bus too

 

[surfbus]

From wich model of Volvo do your rims come?
I was looking at the size from those rims. Later Volvo's run 4x108 or 5 x108. How did you do that? Did you used adaptors?
Like the look of your EB a lott!! :mrgreen:

 

[the councillor]

look at the wheels...

LOOK AT THE WHEELS :twisted:

they look like they're still 5 on 205 to me so they've had the centre removed (as stated in the original post) and then what's left of the rim's been re-drilled to early bay PCD... or am i over-simplifying things they look ace whatever's been done to them 8)

 

[Airtime]

They are Wolfrace wheels, aren't they? They look awesome this way! 8)

 

[surfbus]

They are Wolfrace wheels, aren't they? They look awesome this way! 8)
