The sydney group in Apollo bay have just rang me. They have had a beetle shag its' clutch and need some help.
They asked for a contact number for herbie as he is over that way (ish).
Does NE1 have the number or can help in amy other way ?

I think I saw the mohawk guy one day at Vintage VW where my three year old daughter diplomatically said out loud "Daddy, why does that man have orange hair?"....

Saw Herbie this afternoon. From what I gather it is.
They must have been on a day trip to Lorne, cos that were the beetle had it's trouble. They had all the gear they needed to fix the problem once Herbie got the part to them. It was the clutch plate. Please correct me if I'm wrong Herbie 🙂 I get out of my depth in this tech section :o
The group leave Apollo Bay tomorrow. Fingers crossed no more troubles.

Thats not as bad as my daughter, pointed at the approx 10yr old girl with very few strands of hair (I figure leukemia/chemo) and saying "LOOK DAD" and because I didnt answer then she says it again louder! "LOOK DAD"
