unfortunately what you see is what you get.
Which is a lot of stuff considering the revised price ;)

if you're up for a straight axle conversion then yeah, the lot will help. It's only a 1200 gearbox so won't set the world alight in terms of high speeds. Great acceleration though and bound to be better than the reduction boxes. I think you'd need some kind of adapter to fit the bus spring plates to the beetle axle tubes.

one person has enquired about it by PM but is seeing if they can organise a trailer so nothing agreed as of yet.

at this price it's first come first served ;)
