If you are in the VW scene you problably already seen it.
When i first came across Mike Unland’s picture of his 59 vert pan sittin on the ground
outside his garage with the Rotiform FUC’s on it, i tought this is a project to follow.
But back then i didn’t even know who the floorpan belonged to, Now i know and i have him
on my Facebook and i have fliped thru his build photos, and i got to say, the man got an great
eye for the details.
And now he has nailed it again with a set of DIY split wheels for his 1956 beetle.
Using a stock steel center and puting some big ass polished lips on them.
And it looks killer.
The 59 vert pan with the FUC’s
If you haven’t seen his future and the sweet photos on Stanceworks, you should go check it out HERE
And the wheels for his 56.
6 inch in the front and 8,5 in the back.
And the finished result.
Thanks for letting me use the pictures Mike.
Keep it Classy.

To tired right now to write something, this post will be uppdated a couple of times in the next couple of days, it´s 3 a clock at nite and i need to sleep, but here is the first photos.
*Update* Well it´s about 25 hours since i wrote this post, just finnished another 44 photos, i thought i had more but i was there to make a movie so i guess this will have to do.
Well it was an awesome weekend, mutch more people and cars then last year, and mutch more that was camping at the event. The main event is on Saturday but you can camp there from Friday to Sunday, i was suppose to camp but it didn’t happen this year, but next year for sure.
If you think “Hey! there is a lot of pictures of that Herbie racecar” well i have waited 2-3 years to see Andreas Åberg rip some rubber on the track with that natural aspirated beast. He got a new personal best of 10,1** and it’s the first run in the movie, the second one is 10,3** something. Hope you get a 9.** before the summer is over Andreas.
I’m making the official movie for Bug Run Classic this year to, Along with my buddy Alexander Åberg so in a couple of weeks it should be done. Until then enjoy the pictures.

Last Saturday my old boss Woffe had an open house in his new shop, lots of classic Volkswagens and some new cars as well.
Here is a little info on Wolfpars.
