I'll have a chat to the others to sort out a time of departure but I'm happy for everyone to meet at my workshop (west burleigh - close to the M1 with a servo just around the corner on the way to the m1 if needed).
As mentioned I would say between 8 and 9am (but will finalise this in the next couple of days) - my workshop is DAS Resto Haus, 6/2 Calabro Way, Burleigh Heads (0417 645 854). Reedy creek road exit off m1, right at first set of lights into burleigh gardens industraial estate, left at t-intersection, follow road (curves around to the right), Calabro Way is your first left.
Cheers
Al

Also going down the Friday, John. Taking the SC and camping in a tent.
What time are you leaving Caloundra?
Think Al plans to leave the Gold Coast around 9am, and thinking of the Gateway Aererial Rd parking lot.
Cheers

ok I've been thinking about the gateway arterial parking lot senario n that doesn't sound like a fun way to begin a great vw weekend away so I really think that leaving earlier will end in smiles all round
I propose to leave sunny coast, tewantin area at around 6am via cooroy to highway south, (can roll thru big BP caboolture if required) onto the yatala BP for a pit stop around 08.00 leaving about 08.30 onto servo opp big prawn to meet others around 09.30 for a 10.00 departure south..
any thoughts shout em out..

Hi guys at this stage we plan to meet at 8.30am at my workshop, then depart 9am SHARP to hopefully catch up with Judy and crew around Byron to continue the journey south. Hopefully everything goes to plan.
Cheers

Hey Brett
We haven't really thought of a time for setting off yet, not that organised. We'll be taking it fairly slow and stopping, we like coffee and the dogs need to pee from time to time. We're pretty easy on timings, we can't get into the house until after 2 anyway, if we get there early, I'll go for a surf, if there's any swell.
I`m not sure we can get away thursday night now, cause i did want to run my buggy at the Raliegh track on the friday,,, but maybe not now
sooooo,,,,, ---> If my g-box is fixed & back in the hole , then i`ll try to tag along with the Friday morning crew,,, if that`s all cool ?
yep the more the merrier!

Me and the boy wonder will be there with bells on.😵💫
Customer service is not dead in Australia.
Always after HAZET & MATRA & VW factory tools
It`d be really cool if , on the way to &/or from Valla,,, If we could have ,,, say,,, a type-3 driving behind me all the way,,, with it`s bonnet open,,, catching all the expensive gearbox parts comming out the back of my kombi
but then maybe it would be pretty smart if i just brought along a spare gearbox for the trip
anyone up for a gearbox swap on the side of the road ???

Sure, sounds like fun
🤪
I've already put my Auto in twice this week and it still has to come back out again as something is still not right
😬
It will be ready to go to Valla, I'm sure of it (have to think positive - it's about all I have left now!)

🙂40hp, 6V and ...er... slowly making improvements
😂
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!
