in the front
by 1938 ferdinand had given up trying to arrange for a supply of vw parts for the type 64. ferdinand and his son ferry porsche decided to redesign the car from the ground up to be built internally by porsche. this would have been the first car actually built by porsche themselves. known as the type 114, or f-wagen, a sort of portmanteau of ferry and p-wagen, it was a significant departure from the type 64. although it never reached the prototype stage the design drawings were all but completed and included a novel water cooled 72° v10 engine in a true mid engine layout, as opposed to the vw's rear engine layout. suspension was by trailing arms in front and swing axles in the rear, with drum brakes at all four corners. the body was aluminum and resembled a lower, stretched, and streamlined vw. porsche had hopes of producing this car, but international tensions and a poor economy lead to its cancellation. porsche did manage to salvage part of its investment by selling the transaxle design to volkswagen.

""i always say we want to be the vw bug of roleplaying companies, meaning that we want to have a modern style and appeal but an obvious link to the past. one of the ways we do that is how we design the modules. for example, we use full color covers (not that funky mono-color of the old modules). but our modules have the same basic format of the old modules—inset art, module number in the upper left corner, diagonal band in the upper left corner, logo placement, etc. i guarantee you, when you look at one of our modules you will flash back to the old ones—just like when you see a new vw bug. and hopefully you will say "man, that is just like an old module except cooler.""
