Thank you for the replies. The VW solution is a definite proposition. Specially after I found out that inner CV's on the bug transmission are the same as the early VW Rabbit. I could do the whole front end from Rabbit parts. I have actually considered having the motor behind the the suspension instead of hanging out in the front. It will not place quite as much weight on the front wheels but it would help with the body design and not having to reverse the differential (not really a big deal). BTW this is my inspiration:
