tweety Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 My VW trike to Subaru conversion is located in "Meet and Greet" section. The project just got completed and this is a video of the trike with its unique roof and the ea81 mated to a full VW automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tweety Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 Thanks Subeefun This trike is my hobby and is an ongoing project. Upcoming additions are: Single marine windscreen wiper Custom dashboard to incorporate trailer brake controller, digital thermatic fan switch and reverse camera. twin heater radiators. It has a single one now and a second one will eb a bonus. and vanes to direct air from heaters. Windscreen demister is required also for cold weather. thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Looks excellent. I don't recall seeing a "running board" or similar on a trike before. Does it also add regidity? I like how it's notched so it's not in the way when getting in and out of the vehicle. I've seen those style roofs as aftermarket for old bugs years ago - cute in your application.

tweety Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 thanks Davebugs. The "ladder bars" as they call them here in Oz are an option. Normally they just have a single bar. I wouldnt do without them. They do add a little strength but nothing substantial. The roof is my own design. Yes have seen the bug roof trikes on the net and a few are ok but some not so. Most improtant I think to get the design right. It is a head turner. Stop at a town and the cameras come from all over... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
