Particularly the Kubel. Have seen a couple of their Kubels and they are really nice. A couple of the Porsche 550 mfgrs are also offering Subbie power. While nice, I think it is a departure from the reality of a replica to use Subbie power. Kind of like putting a Chevy V8 in a split window bus because it performs better. Yeah, but it ain't a VW anymore. ________________________________ From: Duncan <whocanduncan1@xxxxxxxxx> To: "tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, March 7, 2013 1:22:18 PM Subject: [tcb] Roadster Small Car Performance (known for subie conversion parts) is now making roadsters.
