Tyler - 79 VW Rabbit - VIP Performance

Tyler - 79 Rabbit VIP Performance VR6 engine swap

Tyler came to VIP Performance looking for something a little different. The idea that you could install a monster VR6 power plant into a little Rabbit sounded exactly what he was looking for. Plans were made with the help of VIP Performance to locate a clean Mk1 VW Rabbit and a good running VR6 donor car. A good running 93 VW Passat was found. The disassembly began and within a few months two cars became one! Tylers old Rabbit became “rabid” with the VR6 engine transplant. The roar of the VR6 was unmistakable. Tyler also added a full roll cage for safety and strengthen up the body. Tyler daily drives his pristine Mk1 rabbit and attends all the VW car show he can make it too. If you ever see this Rabbit take the time to look over all the detail it is truly one of the nicest VW Rabbits you will ever see.
