Cucking Funts

SebastienPeek · 2012-03-08T22:53:30+00:00

Woke up this morning, did my morning routine to get ready for work, walk out the front to Zelda and guess what? Some dickheads have jumped on the roof, pushing it in, the bonnet is crumpled in more places than one, windscreen wipers all over the floor, side mirrors ripped off, marks down the side. I'm thinking the insurance company won't even bother. Shit may be for sale off of her, not 100% sure yet. We'll see what the insurance company do, it might be a write off, I doubt they'll even give me any cash as I've only got third party fire and theft. And to think I'm waiting for all these bits in the post, I'll most likely just be selling them straight away too. Unless someone wants to give me another L bug... 🙁 Oh well, it might be the end of Zelda or it might not be. She might go into storage or she might be parted out. Who knows, I sure as hell don't at the moment... I've got lots of photos, will post them up when I get the chance, on my iPhone so can't do it from here as photos are on DSLR.

Give me a call if you want someone to look over the squareback with you. There are two for sale in Adelaide I'm aware of.
Cheers Dave

There's one just near mine Dave, it was advertised in the paper yesterday and went and took a look this morning.
Going back to take a second look later this afternoon if all goes to plan, otherwise I might have to look at the other two that I know of...

If I need a hand though, I'll give you a buzz!
Thanks Dave!

Yeah, I saw them on eBay. They're earlier models too.
But require a decent amount of work to get back on the road.

This one I'm looking at just needs to be re-registered and some bubbles fixed.
Should be a day work maximum.

Alright, so today is the day that I should get a call about what happens next.

Should find out today as well whether or not I get a new car...

Agreed ...find a panelbeater who absolutely knows how to achieve the best result ... this may mean they might not be the cheapest but you get what you pay for! Good luck!

Although, blowing up watermelons would be quite fun at the moment...

Well, I'm actually really hoping that the insurance company doesn't cover me. It means that Dad will be buying Zelda off of me, which means I'll still be able to do stuff to her!

If I find out who did it, reckon you'd come down and blow them up? 😉

Ah well, I'm just really anxious to see what comes of today.

In that case, contact Ian Poynter at Holden Hill. Wait, I'd heard his workshop has moved. Call Volksfactory, they'll know where he is.

They can do ANYTHING with Volkswagen metal.!

We'll see Maris, depending on what happens today will depend on whether or not I get the car back in my possession and if so, then I'll be selling her to Dad and I'll give him Ian's details.

Thanks again!

Looks like I won't be getting a car anytime soon!

The pan was great, the interior not so much.
I don't know, maybe I was dreaming, offered him $1,000 as a maximum.
No go.

Time to look for something more modern, I may be saying goodbye to the VW world soon 🙁
