Since we are still running Armando's bus around sorting out any niggles and tuning tweaks (and also finally finished the audio now Pioneer's new headunit became available after a 3 month delay)....I decided to take it to the KMT Autorama (custom/classic car show here on the Gold Coast). Weather held off today with only intermittent showers so fortunately there was still a pretty good showing of cars, here is only a small selection:








Some 'completed' shots of Armando's bus:


Forgot to put the screws back in this morning since we've been playing around with the head unit wiring....has gps with live traffic updates, auto reverse camera, plus the usual audio antics you'd expect of any head unit nowadays.


Some other shots you've probably already seen sorry

Picked up car of the show (I'm sure a few of the mega dollar muscle car boys would have been a little disgruntled!) and best interior, pretty stoked given the high calibre of cars around.


Hopefully next year will see better weather and even better attendance figures.

It's not my place to say how much. You are right this bus has had a big budget (despite hearing rumours of some grossly inaccurate figures), but knowing the dollars spent on some of the American cars (yes I know for a fact and not just from rumour), this has had far less spent.

The debate was never about whether this resto is within the reach of most people, it was more a note that the bus can hold its own against non-vw's with budgets even bigger. And budgets aside altogether, I just thought some might appreciate seeing a vw get some accolades outside our scene.

Cheers for the other comments.
