P'S' on the way home we got as far as loganhome i think and the small screw on the gear selector wriggled it's way loose. AAAGGGHHH!! no gears. gerry rigged a screw and ripped off a bit of t-shirt to get us on the move again then just about to hit the Bruce Hwy and the fan belt broke, cleaned up the vacumn advance pipe, the oil temp wires, the throttle spring dad a spare belt and made it home. Eventfull day. cheers, fish

Don't think you will escape when I have the camera :P
Bettyboop, sorry I didn't get to say G'day. I met most people, but not all. 🙁 Maybe next time.
Was a great day, and CONGRATS to the GC VW club for another well run event.

I think it's pretty quiet show wise until Dubs in Feb.

Hi all,

This is just a quick thanks from the organisers to everyone who came along to the show. Thanks also to everyone who is posting images here as well (I was too busy organising to get out and have a look around 🙁 so this is my chance to see what we did!). It also shows those who didn't come what they missed! Perhaps next year....

I have also posted a few questions, asking for your feedback under this thread.

http://www.aussieveedubbers.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=14549&page=4

If you have the time, could you please have a read and voice you opinion? We are trying as hard as we can to make this show even bigger and better next year - and we need your help!

Thanks again

R

PS: sorry about the line at the gate - it was probably a mixture of a giant convoy arriving all at one time and me having a chat to everyone as they came through the gate - we will be working on this for next year. Oh, yeah - check out Channel 9 news on the TV over the next day or so. They were there with their cameras and we are told it will be shown soon. (You could be famous!!😀 )

40hp, 6V and ...er... slowly making improvements 😂

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!

Hi Andy,

In regard to the sweet green camper, do you have any idea where is got the rollout awning from?

Cheers 🙂

Actually I was very interested in it as it's the set-up I want. I have been looking at a nicely made imported one for caravans/campers. that also feature side skirts to give a nice outside room, but ~$1500!!!
What this guy has is an awning (for a house) from this mob http://www.thewarehouse.com.au/
that comes with a plastic material ~$200. He then took it to a canvaser to replace the plastic with canvas and also make clip on sid skirts. Gives the same result, but all under $400!!!
It winds out and is self supporting. Use the legs if it's windy or rainy.
