I was there on Sat afternoon... Great display of cars. I only saw two VW's though... A nice Superbug and a Ratty chop top bug... Sorry did'nt take
pics, hopefully the Wintersun event stays in Qld next year.
If it's not in a Vee Dub I'm not going!

They have cancelled the mid year Victorian event due to lack of interest so maybe that is an indication that it will remain in Queensland.
Nice teardrop by the way  Thinking that was yours in VWMA?

Ah ok.
you'd think having such a great machine you would go crazy with security measures...
If they are pro enough though, any thief could steal anything...
There would be ways to set it up without harming the 'originality'
but some seem owners seem ignorant.
Had the next door neighbour stay ova at wintersun with his red stringray corvette and he ain't even got a kill switch, alarm or fuel cut off.
absolutely nuffin but the classic old factory ignition barrel and door lock.
ah wells...
