These guys from Switzerland built an awesome VW T1 bus. Took them 45 months for the first version, 6 years for what it looks like now. The bus features a twin turbo Porsche motor, Porsche brakes, BBS three piece wheels (235/35/18 front, 285/30/18 back), Bilstein suspension, cage, carbon fiber roof and lots of other good things.

Check out the gallery of the build-up (http://www.race-taxi.ch/indexx.htm) (it's in German, but the pictures speak for themselves).

I have to admit when I read the title of this thread I was all WTF? I drove a VW van in High School and it was anything but Pro-Touring. More like the rolling ice box during those long winters. This VW however get's my vote. That sucker is wicked.
