Unverified Ownership My little mountain goat

35 litres used to be about the norm for smaller cars. The original Beetle had a capacity of roughly 8 imperial gallons.
 
That's tiny, even smaller than the Smart (not just mine but the ForTwo, er, too). Any known reason for it being smaller? Reinforced for off road use maybe?
 
when i ordered my volvo i took the optional 62l (instead of 48l), and still think it's too small!
 
I haven't looked, but going from these pictures the rear diff needs a place to fit.
The right pic is a 4x4 and is very concave compared to the 2wd.

I think in the Mk1 the fuel tank is further back under the trunk floor and the band holding it in place is visible from behind the car, but I don't know if MXM's 4x4 has a different sized tank than my 2WD had.
 
This is pretty cool, nice pick up man!
 
I wanted Abarth seats, however this interior came up and the guy sent me an offer. So I bit his hand off.

They pretty much bolt straight in.

Front and rear seats, the steering wheel will fit. But not sure if I'll add the wheel.
 
I would say put the wheel on if the buttons work.
 
440 miles later...
