Homemade Volkswagen trike - 7 year long project
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This is a project that my Father and I started about 7 years ago. My Father passed away from cancer in 2015 and I have been working on it ever since to finish it.
So the back story to this thing is, my father welded the frame up for a friend of his from work. The friend began to assemble it. He then retired and had other plans. I bought it from him and stripped it down. Replaced 99% of the stuff on it.
I got lazy along the way, life also got in the way. I am so happy this thing is all finished. Next step on this trike is to get it inspected and get an engineering certificate.
I will keep posting videos on this beast. I really have to paint the bottom of that fibreglass body black. While editting it has begun to bother me. The rough amount of money that has gone into this is $14000 AUD. I lost count of how many hours went into this thing.

Its running better after getting it dyno tuned in a more recent video.
What year are the VW rear light assemblies? I’m using 1976 styles ones and they seem similar but with different coloring.

The lights are 1973-2003 model. The lens is after market which does come with different colours. I bought them in Sydney but they may be Brazilian after market parts.
