Volkswagen Concept: OXR

Volkswagen Concept: Oval Autocrosser(OXR)

Built for slalom racing, this forgotten 1953 Volkswagen Oval window sedan is based on a 1972 ball joint and IRS chassis that has undergone structural stiffening to elimate all flex. OXR has widened fiberglass front and rear fenders that allow fitting of 17″ JDM 6 spoke wheels with ADVAN racing tires. Full rollage and lightweight SPARCO racing seats dominate the stripped interior. A 2332 Monster Type1 is tuned for instant throttle response. Brembo brakes front and rear ensure late braking for terminal speed in the corners.
