VW Bus with a 993 Motor
No, not the one in the youtube video spanking a GT3. I think that one had a 993TT motor.
I remember there was on in Florida. It was a few years back. I though it was fabcar that did the work. From what I remember they basically built a new frame and put the VW bus on it. This may have been done to hold the suspension and trans and motor.
Has this been done again. Is building a frame still the way to go.

Wow, at least you saw it up close. I think I have the actual magazine so I am going to dig for it. I didn't realize it had a 996 suspension. So I guess there really isn't much difference between the 993/996 if you building this.

I also searched for the story about Seinfeld and his buddies going on a cross country road trip in an old bus with a Porsche motor. My buddy saw him interviewed on Leno or letterman.
