Yeah I know you guys will want to check what I meant by that post...above


Yes I once open a post that to convert manual drive Into an autodrive is possible
I saw too many critics saying NA LIE and others... here everything is possible..........

Now first ever to pimped transformed and customised an old vintage
1500 v.w nettle that yoruba pple called IJAPA...
Or yerimbeto!!!
As we all know normally from the genesis of that nettle or bug. Engine are normally used to be at the back of the car.
Now we are changing the whole system of the car by putting a golf 2 engine at the front of it...
Changing the legs
Changing so many things.
As for now

Nice one. I am following

Nice but it won't be Ijapa anymore. That unique sound will be gone.

This doesn't make any sense.
1st of all . Changing Rear wheel drive to a front wheel is a downgrade to me.

2ndly if you had much to spend for this , why not get a better engine than a fuel Carbureted Golf 2engine.
Turbo charging the stock enging would have been better than this Golf engine .

Or better still get an Electronic fuel injected Engine From A Golf 3 and its whole engine wiring . and mount it in that ride and see how it flies .
Am not here to bad mouth your project . But this is Good though .
So please continue and share us more pictures.

Where are the completion of this beetle

Where are the completion of this beetle

The man has become history so also his thread and his nairaland vision. That is life people rise and fall, People come to go.

I am keenly waiting for this 'project' to be completed then raced against another original beetle through twisty roads and see which one wins.

First, upon what is that FWD engine sitting on? How is that weight being transferred to the whole suspension?

When I brake hard from a mere 100km/h, how do you ensure that the yansh of the vehicle does not go up like a Wembley football?

Can you also share how you intend to steer the vehicle? Using the old Steering Box which was designed to handle a lesser front weight or adding a rack and pinion from a Golf MK2? Kindly shed more light on this.

Cooling...now you need a radiator. Where would you put it? Same front? This implies the iconic beetle shape is lost...oh I forgot, you have already sawn off the fenders and other remnants of the beetle's prestige. How about flattening the roof to make it a complete love-vendor?

Oh....gearing...I almost forgot. How would you do that now? The golf's transmission too? That means the clean space under the Beetle's dash would now have a slight clutter. You might want to use the golf's centre console to cover that space up too.

Rear suspension? Golf 2 too? The weight loss fr the back....any counter measure?

Now handling... Good old handling...remember my opening sentence about racing your 'pimped' beetle. I would like to see how it turns out.

First, a race between your beetle and another stock beetle then a race between your beetle and a golf 2. Please don't make it a drag race or straight line race but a race within twists, curves, ups and downs...a normal race.

PS: the only way you can make this work a bit well is to take the whole chassis component of a golf MK2 and put it under the body of a VW Beetle.

This implies cutting a complete golf MK2, removing the body parts on top and swapping same with the body shell of a VW beetle...a kind of Golf 2 in a beetle's coat.
