Different...and you can just see the holes faintly.....I have a 't' shaped bracket for the back...gotta find a pic of one with plate mounted....

You could do the same. Looks like the same holes and the same problem. Just get them to make you a plate like Pige's and you don't really notice it too much if it's the same colour as the rest of the car! otherwise you have to weld the holes and repaint the decklid!

Pige IS beautiful Rob!!
I think they can weld the holes....especially if the holes are wrong....We've gone this far....
Yeah
Even the man who sold her to me still has a strong affection for the car, he see's her every sunday, and he always wanders over to say hello to her and have a touch! how goods that!

That is so nice!!
He is probably so happy that she has a good home...people who love her.....and where he is welcome to visit.....Very cool....
How long have you had bel Jenz? and who did you buy her off?

Only had her 3 years....October 2001 roughly...from a young guy.
He bought Bel from the son of the original owner...the father had died and the son drove her for a while?....All a little unknown...and no original papers...
Jon and I weren't fully into VW's when we bought her...she was for sale by the side of the road near home...I'd always wanted a beetle..and we'd just come back from a trip to Tassie were we hired an old beetle from Rent-a-Bug....I drove and loved it so much....Bel was there waiting when we got back!!! :thumb
Jon and I had 4-5 months of dubbing together before he died and now she's my solo project....
So it was her you have to thank for your obsession! How goods that! Well she is getting what she deserves, a whole new set of clothes. and a face lift. I wouldn't do that for my wife! I have a new found respect for your Bel now! she is a life changer.

She certainly is a life changer!! My friends are still very puzzled by my change ... to a petrol head.... 😀
She is cool....Jon and I joined the VW Club of Victoria together in 2001 at the DOVW in Croydon.....we entered Bel and lined her up so we could see what she needed doing and how she had been changed....
I still do this now...it's the only way to do it. If you park your ride outside....it's not as good.....side by side with others their own model and you can pick things so much better...and you don't forget when you get back to the car.....
Well that's how I work it...🙂
I think he's gone to bed so he can get up early and watch the Olympics!! 😉
...or he's gone out partying...coming home late just in time to watch the Olympics...
...or non of the above.....😀
Obviously she was destined to be with you! Thats what Beetles do to you!

Maybe...don't tell him...I don't think he comes into this area????
He might knock this thread out to get me!!!!! *jenz looks over her shoulder*
Nah...Dave's a consistant poster...and a bit of a way ahead still!!! *cheesy grin*
Once I get out and about again...and work picks up...I won't be on as much as now...
I think we took over the eyelids thread and turned it into bud vases...I hope they had finished their questions.....😀
Hi....remember me.......i had 2 go back so many pages to catch up!!!!!!🙂
good to see you make it back safely

Of course we remember you... in our thoughts a lot of the night... 🙂
Rob was on a forum binge after working all week and little contact here with us dubbers
Wasn't expecting to hear you were in Albury...I thought I read a post saying that you where nearly home hours ago....I almost imagined you had arrived home and fallen into bed already after the long drive (and to get WARM)....
Is the kombi running fine now?
The tappets have been adjusted again so shes o.k at the moment but shes going to need to see a doctor as soon as she gets home...(this is still assuming she makes it home!!):duh
She will....it's all down hill now till home!!!!:thumb
Think positive...and there's people along the way home...do you have some phone numbers...people in Shep...etc....
We can get the native drums happening if need be.....
Smooth cruisin home tomorrow...have the best run!!!

Oh THANKS Zac...just come on the brag about the weather do you..sun...surf :jesus
So still enjoying the scenery by the soundas of things 😉😉
I'm not wasting my day...got up to watch the Olympic opening ceremony...didn't set the alarm cos I reck'n I could miss the teams coming out...and they are still going......Let my body set the time...normal wake up hours on a work day...
Hmmmmm...now what to do with all this time....:duh
Hey mandie great to hear you got back.....finally
You were right jenz none of the above...just went to bed....get up at 5am everyday.....I see your up early this morning though
....I'm am...:jesus
...to watch the opening of the Olympics...slept in...thought that the show came after the official stuff for some reason...logged on while the athletes came out...
Hmmm...now I have a long day ahead....shop at Vic Market...then Greek cake in Lonsdale St to watch the bit I missed....😀
Mandie stopped the night in Albury...visited David....so they are not officially home yet...
They're delaying the crossing of the Geat Dividing Range....or the great Victorian rain barrier....it's a threashold we all dread crossing....🙁
Well I hope they get across OK and maybe drag some rain with them
Thats probably the one thing we havn't got in Brissie is the big market scene although it is starting to pick up
We have the Riverside markets in the city on the river but nothing ever changes and I think people up there prices because of the trendy environment.
must admit there is some nice stuff though.
Rob are you looking after pige, Bob keeps asking me to keep an eye on her...
