Hey all, I'm a long time VW enthusiast, and also a very part-time poster on the Kombi Club forums.
Due to a variety of reasons - time, money, space etc. - my interest in VWs has been mainly just owning one and getting other people to fix it for me. Now I finally have a garage and my very own copy of the idiot's guide (which I'm still ploughing through), so I hope this situation will improve soon!
I own a `73 microbus which my dad bought the day we moved to Australia in 1988. It's gone so long without having a proper name, it would feel weird to give it one now.
(It's had a bit of work done since that picture was taken, but it's still a lot shabbier than I'd like it)
My newest addition to the family is Dustin, the 1970 type 3 fastback. (Gold star to anyone who can work out where he got his name!)
I bought him just a few weeks ago. He looks worse than he is (partially because I've stripped the interior) and mainly needs a few cosmetic touches and a tune-up.
So I look forward to spending some time here!
