I LOVE B3 wagons(even though i dont own one).... just read entire thread all i can say WOW to the owner!

[Borbosvw]

Thanks for your words
New update

[theillusionofsafety]

can't wait to see this finished!

[Passat94VR6]

SO glad this project is still goin.

With the amount of custom fab work, you could now bodydrop this like they do in the lowered truck scene. Get a slammed look without major suspension issues. A bodydropped VW would definitely be unique. Not that this wagon needs to be any more unique!

I believe he's making this a track car

[jvonn]

we need more threads like this and less of dbags putting coils/wheels on

[EUROBORA8V]

So because you are using a BMW rear end, what are the plans for the running gear? Will that affect your wheel choice if you go with an adapter? Kick ass build thread. Its about time someone put a V8 in an older Passat.

[perickomx]

This gonna be sick!

[Str8pipingti]

so what is up with this sick build? been i while....

[Borbosvw]

There is some work in progress on my corrado , and the last month i finished up my beetle.
But some small things has been fixed on the passat as well.

The rims will be 5x112 , redrilled

Very good project

[B4 Slapshot]

Stay the course! This is incredible! I would love to see the conversation that went on before this happened.

Hey.... um... what if we had a rear wheel drive V8 B3?

Yeah that would be cool................Wait you serious?
