Rodney has been into Volkswagens since he was 15. He grew up around VWs and event met his wife because of Volkswagens. Now they build custom Volkswagens together! Their 1967 Volkswagen Beetle "Audacity" was on display at the 2024 World of Wheels in Indianapolis, Indiana. #volkswagen #vw #customcars
Rodney's wife designed the car, and did all of the interior work. Rodney did everything else. The exterior is painted with Tamco's "Piss Off Pink" and features an angle chop roof, which has 6 inches removed from the front, and 2 inches removed from the rear. With the difference front to back, the windshield had to be 6 inches shorter, while the angle of the back had to be laid forward to give it a swooping look. The rear fenders are 5 inches wider than stock, and the fronts are 1.5 inches wider than stock. This allows the custom wheels to tuck nicely in the wheel wells when the air ride suspension is lowered.
The whole thing is powered by a 1915cc Volkswagen engine fed by dual 44 Weber carbs. Even the interior has been modified, with leather and plaid seats and trim, and a digital gauge cluster designed for a 1957 Chevrolet truck has been fitted into the dash. Volkswagens aren't just a passion for Rodney and his wife, it's also their business. They build 4-5 customs per year out of their shop, Metal Morphosis, and sell them to whoever wants them. As of the posting of this video, Audacity is for sale. Check them out at [ Ссылка ]
