Daily driver,
&n=
bsp;
Well mine is a 85 Single-Cab Transporter with a transplanted 2.1l WBX. =
Goes like
stink. Mainly do to the lighter weight of the Single -Cab vs the heavy =
campers
and passenger vans. A very useful daily driver. Has a huge storage =
compartment
under the cargo bed. The sides and tail gate to the cargo box all fold =
down or
they can be removed and you have flat deck work truck. It has a =
huge
storage compartment under the cargo floor it's the same size as the =
lower floor
area on a van. One nice feature is that there are locking doors on both =
sides of
the truck to access the treasure chest. I have been thinking of a motor =
upgrade.
There's an extra 6 inches of clearance in the engine bay over what =
the
regular Vanagon has, which means that I don't have to worry about =
clearance
issues associated with the engine swap. Lots of room to work on the =
engine too.
The back engine lid on the Transporters is huge ( 41" by 12") =
compared to
the tiny little one on the vans. One of the things I like is that you =
don't see
to many Vanagon Single-Cab pick-ups around so it stands out. It's nice =
to have
something different from the masses. But then again that's one of the =
nice
features of all VWs.
Cheers
Glen
