- This is a 1968 VW powered by a Harley Davidson EVO engine . Vw transmission 4 speed and reverse. Also included a full functional BBQ GRILL on front . Rust free solid car!Made by MOTORINK Miami Florida.
Sounds like it's only firing on two cylinders.....
Lmfao
she's got the jack. sorry wrong Malcolm young

HAHAHA, potato,potato, potato......
U quit AC-DC????
I laughed out loud when you popped the hood. Well done sir.
Ok the Harley engine was cool enough but the grill up front seals the deal.
hahahah want some BBQ ?
@@bro_street I'd have to seal the front end up and make some kind of exhaust for the smoke and cook stuff while I drive around.
That was a good idea to move the gasoline to the back seat area. some jocks from my highschool back in 1963 were burned to death in one of them , they were jocks so no one really missed em, and we got a day off but kind of had to go to the funeral, but we made the best of it anyway.
'Murica!
Would have been nice to see it in motion, right now looks like an oversized engine stand/ BBQ
Why those bugs are shitty cars not impressive. glad he moved the gasoline to the back. I remember a car full of jocks at our highschool were burned alive in one of them death traps. they were jocks so no one really missed em and we got a day off school, but had to attend the funeral. we made the best of it.
@@johngillon6969 wow, and I'm sure you're a great person
@@johngillon6969 kinda just sounds like they bullied you and now you have some sort of vendetta against the vw bug due to trauma
yup- it's another 'listen to how my Harley engine idles with almost no oil pressure", Lots of Harley owners confuse decibels with horsepower.
With that said, the Harley Evolution engine can produce about 55 horsepower. I got a feeling we didn't see it move because he couldn't get the thing to launch off the line with any proficiency; which means they got work to do on the drive train.
one would think that on the basis of the engine mod alone this would score highly on originality but obviously the Harley Davidson motor is not the main feature here...priceless...!
I got news for everyone I did this in high school in 1984 and still have the bug, I also have a 66 mini Cooper with a 138 cu in S n S engine with a 6 speed trans, been there done it along time ago!
Thats really awesome. I saw an S&S powered snowmobile once and i thought that was kool. This is more practical by far.
I would love to see the looks on faces in traffic when he gets out to flip his burgers. 😁
I have wanted to do this for 4 years and you beat me to it i give you credit its done well
Soon,,, We will have adaptors ready for sale !! follow me for updates!!!
@@motorinkfernando587 do you have an adapter for sale?
@@motorinkfernando587 do you have adapters for sale yet?
Just got into a '71 super as a trade for my old sportster. . I was just dreaming up this same idea. I need info on the adapter plate. Really whatever you can tell me about the whole drivetrain situation.
I'd like to know more about how you hooked the motor into the transmission. I know how a typical V-twim, via the primary and chain, attaches to a harley transmission but am having trouble visualizing your application
My dad and I used to work on his bug. We used to take the engine out ourselves, it only weighed 225lbs. We put a new dashboard in that showed the oil temp, techometer, and so forth. We put two two barrel Hollies on it, custom Bosch fuel pump and installed fog lamps. I want to get my hands on one to fix it up when this madness is over.
I know this video is extremely old but i have many questions as i’m working on my own project currently, is this driven by a belt or did you somehow link the driveshaft to the sprocket?
YES FINALLY SOMEONE BUILT ONE!
i just thought the same thing!!
Pienso lo mismo 👍🇪🇦

Any updates?
@@motorinkfernando587
Updates? Are you on IG ?
I love the idea a Harley-Davidson on a smaller car nicely done let's get more than
it sounds sweet 👍🏻😎 one other thing it needs a drag racing V-Twin Harley-Davidson Metro power
why do people post these videos and then never drive them ? pointless
It runs but can't hide
cause this doesn't move
How do you know it isn't being driven, or at least serving as a test bed or prototype for other examples to follow?
@@joewoodchuck3824 tell us , then
Yes you should checked my channel were i have videos driving it. tks
How did you adapt that engine to the transmission ? Cool 😎
He is probably using the Harley stock transmission and linkage to reach the stick inside. Then converted the rear diff to chain drive. Might not have reverse yet but dood its a freaking v twin🤣
No he's using an adapter plate straight to the transaxle. He said he was developing the plates for production, but nothing has come about it.
@@jakestevens2323 nope...adaptor plate
This is the best Volkswagen ever…❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻
Did you see that BBQ? What a party Bug.
Q uantum I would be impressed if it was a propane bbq and a propane engine running on the same tank.
Blue Mountain Edward Man that's alot of gasoline if that bbq pit got outta hand🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Got to be cool to have the one-of-a-kind car in the whole world. Thumbs up for you also. Happy weekend.
My only complaint is the fast idle, they tend to be built to have that classic harley sound at a slow idle
I think the higher idle fits the car better. That super low choppy idle honestly sounds kinda fucked.
Thats a normal “healthy” idle
@@Dalehawk2000 ig I'm the type to like a under idle
How work,s the Motorcooling , their is no Ventilator or somthing else , maybe a giant Oilcooler in Front ?
Omg. Best engine vid I have ever seen.
I love the junkyard look, too.
I can appreciate the work you put into this, but the main problem I see is how do you cool that EVO motor?
You DON'T~
same way it was cooled with the original engine probably channel under the car if you really want you could use a fan
There are a ton of oil coolers made for evo air cooled Harley engines!!! D.K.CUSTOMS
@@calimilk1113 An oil cooler can only do so much. He needs some sort of hidden electric fan setup underneath the car to channel forced air towards the barrels and the heads. That's not hard to do, but he will have to set up some sort of deflectors to guide the air toward the fins. Good answer!
Air ram scoops above the rear fenders with ducting directing air blast onto and over the engine. Highway speed and speed over 30mph will ram cooling air over and across the cylinders.
An additional strong 12v fan that is ducted to concentrate air blast would cool the cylinders when not moving, or under 30mph.
I really want to see this drive! Very cool!
Probably the only time a drunk idea at the BBQ proved afterwards to be a GOOD idea:-)
Great one! VW-Harley Beetle's rules the race!
Harley Badging on the front quarters.... Very nice work 👍
Would have been nice to have heard it going down the road, nice idea would to see the driver train.
J'adore ! Bravo, ah ça sonne mieux qu'un flat hein ? Very good
Do you have any pictures you can send me of how you mated the engine and transmission with the clutch at what parts to use?
Found a way to make it even slower than it was. Nice.
Yes and louder and less reliable and more expensive to repair! Thank God for HD build quality!
Oh never mind! This is just stupid!
The most powerful Beetle engine in '68 was a 1.5 litre that had 53hp, the very weakest Harley twin-cam engine (the 88ci) was 55hp.
The VW might have originally had the 1.2 litre, with 36hp, and the Harley engine might be a 103 Twin-cam, with 75hp.
I've got a 2016 Harley, and it's done 50,000km so far, with no issue. They're not as bad as they were.
Probably twice the torque of its original engine but who cares? It's a fun project. If you're looking for logic, an ancient VW with a grill up front isn't it.
I really really want to know how you fit it in there... but why not use the stock gas tank and starter?
OMG! The barbecue grill is the best part.
Man, I love that car, that what it's all about. Thanks
Don’t care for the bbq but love the Harley engine
EVO -super nice sound😇
Drive it!
Amen!
@@Krabadaque !nemA
That is one badass Volkswagen Bug
Does it move or just make noise?
Rarely do I elevate anybody to godlike status, but I have to say where it go dude!
Volle Punktzahl!!!!! Vom allerfeinsten 👌🏻
This is as Frankenstein as it can get but you got it love it ,
It totally gets enough air. Is it chain drive then?
Great job!
😎
Kick ass!
These air cooled engines can catch on fire, like my brothers super beetle did years ago..
They have to be maintained and kept cool,u used to remove the engine hoods on all my 3 bugs and my friend would put air conditioner condensers with a fan on his! 🌬️
I’m in love with this thing.
Did you guys use a Harley transmission or did you use the beetle transmission??
I wonder if it leaks more or less oil now
The Harley Evolution doesn't leak oil like the old Shovel head did I bought my 86 FLHT new in 1986 and it has a 100,000 original miles never rebuilt and still doesn't leak oil . Stock engine other than free flowing mufflers and a S&S Super E that's jetted correctly with the S&S intake . These were the first HD V twins that could go a 100,000 or more before needing to be rebuilt unlike the older engines heck some of the newer Twin cams don't even last that long because of timing chain tensioner issues and oil pump problems associated with the cam tensioner grinding down and clogging the oil pump plus fly wheels that come loose and go out of balance because they are press fit and not either welded or bolted tight where the Evolution doesn't have these problems .
How do you keep that HD V-twin cool ?
Nice project!
Interesting but I don't see how there is any cooling so maybe not really made for going very far. Probably needs a fan with some cool air ducting and maybe an oil cooler too.
Que Locura es esa!!! Jajaja
Gracias por compartir saludos desde Colombia
Damn is a old video but I love it! Over 200 thumbs down.....
WHY you Hating?
Velocidad máxima? Tiene el mismo torque y hp que el motor original?
Did kennedy make this adapter or did you guys?
This car is hot!
Literally!
That’s the second coolest thing I’ve ever seen 👍🇦🇺
You poor thing, you need to get out more.
What a concept! Love it.
Soon,,, We will have adaptors ready for sale !! follow me for updates!!!
Very great sound V~Twin power
Can you please show us how did you combined that engine to the gear box
Soon,,, We will have adaptors ready for sale !! follow me for updates!!!
Thats absolutely badass
Sorry for asking, but how do you manage the cooling? Because it is in the back end of the beetle? It is awesome, that is for sure!
bugs have scoops under the car i believe. the oem engine was air cooled too
@@charlestoncooper5265 yeah....indeed....stupid of me, i forgot that...but that was a boxer engine..maybe easier to cool, nevertheless it's awesome!
Front grill means something completely new now
How is power compared to say a 1300cc VW?
That is so cool good job
EVO!! Rules!!
está ligado direto na caixa do fusca ou passa pela caixa da moto também?
tem que passar marcha nas duas caixas?
You know what? I love it, and I'm glad you did it so I never have to
Why do you start it from outside?
How is the flywheel mounted to the engine? Engine mounts? Has it been done correctly or is it some hack job that's going to fail after 100 miles? Post build pictures or we'll have to make assumptions.

Just Beautiful
Why don't you drive it in the video that's what I was waiting for next pretty cool
comming soonnnn
Does it have problems staying cool in it?
Seriously cool
When you want to go to the bike meet up but you're a car guy.
This is so cool !
NOW ITS A REAL CAR,V- TWIN TORQUE MONSTER
Overheating problem
Lance Henry that's what I thought.
Dont you need to run more than 5 minutes and produce hp to overheat?
So you wouldn’t run it around more than five minutes 😂😳
Unless there’s a way of scooping air from beneath and dragging it through the trunk
I’m thinking a large electric fan pulling air from the louvers above maybe
Does it drive?
Cool. A bug that sounds and runs like a harly.
Cute. Does it move or is it just an expensive grill?
In motion???? Would love to see it run on the road...
Cool design how does it run on the highway?
One of the proposed engines for the prototype Beetles was a turbo V-twin...I think.
I would love to see you driving video of it that would be awesome thank you
video is available
There’s no way. That motor will hit 300+ degrees in 8 minutes with that hatch closed and no air running through the fins.
Only one recomendation find some way to cool the motor, like a fan or ram air duct. The jump up in horse power is almost twice what powered it originally, nice!
Como haces para transmitir la tracción a las ruedas? Saludos
I actually want to do this with a 2004 Beetle ultima & Harley’s newer 86hp 114 cubic inch 1,870cc Milwaukee 8 engine.
It’s a big jump in horsepower & cool factor.
I would also get one of those clear hoods for the engine g run some LED’s to light it up
I’m tryna figure out how he mated the case to the transmission. That’s probably the hardest part. Would be easier to take a Bmw k100 or R1200 engine and shaft drive and mate it up
Does the transaxle hold up with this vibration?
But is it attached to a transmission and will it go on the road?
You can tell it's a Harley,the whole neighborhood is shaking.
Now does the a barbecue act as a window defroster too?
Deve ser legal e bem interessante fazer isso com um Gurgel BR-800, o carrinho é bem leve, e o motor fica na dianteira que favorece a refrigeração, e só dar uma depenadinha na frente do carrinho, ai ele fica refrigerado.
real hein
Looks like it's been BBQed once in its life.
This is so very cool
How does it stay cool? I LOVE IT.
Yeah, I was thinking the same (cooling problem ). It's still kinda cool though, with about the same horsepower as the original engine.
Thank you all for the comments! this coming week will post a video of the car driving around plus a video showing how did a built this machine! and now it is up FOR SALE!
MOTORINK FERNANDO k it’s been 2 weeks and it’s driving me nuts.. where are those videosssss lol
got the video driving it and soon coming the built-in process
MOTORINK FERNANDO hell yeah!
MOTORINK FERNANDO well done , very cool evo powered bug im in process of building 4 door bug rear suicide doors with subaru power
MOTORINK FERNANDO its neat as hell but I think you will have overheating issues. There needs to be air circulating over the cooling fins
Does it connect to the trans axel using the stock gear box or what? I seriously want to do this to my 66 ASAP BUT USING A HAYABUSA engine.
Soon,,, We will have adaptors ready for sale !! follow me for updates!!!
I actually like this, but there is a lot of vibration which may lead to a lot of issues.
ultimate zombie survival car with bbq and all lol
