1978 VW Beetle 5,7 Liter V8





The owner of this modified Bug tried to keep the looks of the car as close to stock as possible, but underneath, it's a completely different story.
This DIY project is said to combine the body shell of a 1978 Beetle with a 1993 Chevrolet S-10 front frame and a 1989 Ford Mustang rear end, while power is provided by a Chevrolet small block 350 (5.7-liters) V8 engine.
Not the kind of vehicle you'd like to take a trip in but nevertheless, an impressive ride for a quick run around the block.
