One thing we loved about our trip to Santa Pod Raceway was the variety cars that were fast that looked like they shouldn’t be. Like this old Volkswagen Bus, van, truck, or whatever you want to call it – we’re still undecided. It has a billet, air-cooled, 3.0L rear mounted engine, it’s shaped like a brick, and manages to crack 8 second passes in the quarter mile. Who wouldn’t love that?

What a cool dude and cool ride! Great video.
My first VW was a square back . Crazy all steel bus in the 8,s cool cool ride
This is the nicest guy of all time. Haha awesome video
My father had a 1959 VW Bus with the same color. It was the base model – simply a tin can with a motor and three bench seats. It had a headliner over the front seat but behind that only a single sheet of metal. No insulation be the engine compartment, so we had to yell at each other while driving. Right after he bought it, he backed into a pole and dented the car precisely between two side windows. Then he backed into another pole and creased the back bumper. A week later, did it again in the same spot. We had to step on the bumper to open the engine compartment. Then someone stole the hubcap off the front left wheel. While I was in the Army, he bought a second 1959 VW Bus in the same color. He was proud to send me the photo of both cars sitting side-by-side. I have no idea why he did that. The engine was so wimpy, it had the accelleration of a semi. Had to wait until there were no cars on the horizon before pulling out into traffic.
Looked at 1320 video for some Hot Rod Drag Week coverage and they didn’t show. First time back todays for this eh video.
Type 2 VW people usually refer to these as Single Cabs and Double Cabs or Crewcabs for the 2 seat ones.
Love the Santa Pod content! 👌 more please! 🇬🇧
Thank you 1320 y’all are the best.
I love how kyle says VOLKSWAGEN…. Vookswagen
i never thought a vw kombi/ute with a vw boxer 4 cylinder would ever run 8s. Even with its bigass drag wheels, parachute, turbo etc, I'm still gonna call this a sleeper. Props to the owner. Cool dude with a super cool vehicle
I mean… of course its going to be faster than most "street" cars especially when you spend over 6 figures and youre not a street truck but a drag truck
I bet that bloke has a shite load of friends, and what a sweet build! That truck is guna be in the 8.50 bracket class in no time!
I've never been to Santa Pod but these videos have me wanting to go even more, especially stuff like this
Wild ride!
