Smyth Performance- Intern
We've been working hard at Smyth Performance to bring you the Jetta/Golf pickup truck conversion kit. The kit won't be ready to ship for a couple more months while we tool up... but I know a lot of you folks will be excited about this latest creation.
Forgive the bondo - customer kits will include complete body panels - we use bondo to finish making the correct shapes. Customers will have some body work to do, nothing like you see in our prototype.
Working tailgate from a Ford Ranger Flareside
Taillights and rear body from Jetta Wagon + Explorer Sportrac
Rear Window slides open, from Toyota pickup
Wheel wells and bed will hold most ATVs and motorcycles under 750lb
Exceptionally strong aluminum extrusions for the bed
Easy access to the spare tire and fuel pump under the bed!
I can't wait for production! There are going to be a lot of fun things we can do with this vehicle. Custom 5th wheel setups and ultralite teardrop trailers should be getting 40mpg! Racks for ladders and custom toolboxes will make an extremely utilitarian little Jetta! OR you could be the first to show up to the autocross or track with your custom super high power FWD pickup!
As you can see, our prototype is a bit of a low-rider...
My Ute will be lifted, of course, with a big steel front bumper and winch.
