HAVE A GO AT THIS!!!!!:thumb
have a go at this!!! that's the one i was thinking of
thanks jen. i knew you'd know :P
Now you are really messing with peoples heads.....two very similar titles sitting next to each other..
So how's work going??? Finish at the call centre?
Have the week off....spent the day going nowwhere for a change😎 Didn't turn one engine over....:o
yeh i quit telemarketing (i stopped turning up for work) and now i work at joes on shannon...a restaurant. it's a lot better
the golf has had it's service, and has had it's brake pads and discs changed, and it is tuned slightly differently now for 'extra performance'😉
i just love double clutching on L's 🙂🙂🙂
Cool!!!:thumb
Sounds like our rides have been getting some pampering...🙂
Bel has just had her shockers changed for the first time ever....can I notice the difference...
Dr L has had some tuning done and he is moving along so well now...
I must go get some temp door trims for Bel, her interior handles keep falling off as I drive along....the winders are pretty much on the floor permanently now...worried about chipping the paint on her seat runners every time they drop...
Jenz
Sounds like Bel is comming along nicely give us a bit of a run down on whats been done.
Hows your co pilot Bob doing these days?

Sounds good to me...join forces:thumb
I know we are one or two members down from our 'Have a go.....' thread...Not sure if it is a permanent thing 🙁
Bel's waiting to be painted....getting confused about where to take her...Just know I want a good job done...take her back to metal, no short cuts...but best price so I don't break the bank...
Think I need to find a 58 hood for her....someone mentioned it to me once...the one she has has got the round VW badge on top of her hood....pretty sure she's not meant to have one.....They don't have her year in the catalogs:o
I think 58's had the badge, but it was the one's you had to bend the tab's on, they were made out of pressed aluminium
The newer one's had spike's that pushed into plastic bungs, and were cast alloy that was chromed.

has anyone heard of a volkswagen tourer? my uncle has one in his carport that he bought a while ago. it's a ragtop, white, has huge guards, and as my dad was telling me, it's definately not standard. i'll have to try get some photos from him. it's an interesting car.
zac

Founding member of the C'town Rat-Pack
Get that camera out Zac...sounds interesting
OK so I only have the wrong badge😎 sorta...😉
Heh y'all.........so good to be back.
Heh Jen my kombi just had a tune & new shockers put in as well it feels like a different car,no more clanging coming from the back area.it use to sound like there were some coke bottles rattling around back there.I also got a new exhaust....WOW....i keep expecting the backfiring but it doesn't happen.Amazing how use to a wrong sound you get that it begins to sound normal.you use to be able to hear me coming a mile away but no more.....................shes purring like a kitten.
I got Anth to come around & check out my splitty to see what panels/rusty bits need replacing so now i can order them & so the major parts of the restoration can begin.I'm very anxious to get it under way.
Jen are you going to the Christmas party on Sunday??????I've got someone to cover the market for me so we'll be there😀
Heh Zac,the tourer may be a modified type 3 as thats what our convertible fasty says on its rego???Just a thought!Look forward to seeing some photos.:thumb
Hope everyones well...........cya😉
Hey Mandie....sounds like we've all been busy while the forum was down...lol
Bel was the same after then new shockers and wheel bearings 🙂
No, I'm heading up to Sydney for 3 days to gather bits I need for Bel (good excuse!!)...We're already getting busier at work so jumped in and got time off before it is impossible..
It's a great day so enjoy it.....

Member of DMLRK.....Die Mittler Lebuns Resto Komeradschaft
Just VVW really....
Maybe Pendle Hill out of curiousity....remember the pics someone posted ages ago...
Vintage Vee Dubs at Campsie is a good place to check out.
Volksbahn, was one of my local shops when I still lived in Sydney, lots of good stuff and nice PPL, still have my discount card!
If your after second hand stuff, there was another place at Riverstone, AP spares.
HM Ferman are impoters of VW stuff, their at 95-105 Boundary Rd Peakhurst.

Is the place in Riverstone the one in 'Buying, Swapping and Selling'?
Don't know, you would have to look them up in the Sydney yellow pages.
