killakornkobb ·
im slammed
not really rodded though.. that matter?
HotRodMatt ·
where is it gunna be?
when is it gunna be held?
if u don't know you shouldn't go...
VWs are hardly outcasts at rod and kustom events. Some VW people are.
BenettonVW ·
Dunno Matt, some people on here don't know when VW shows are on let alone Rod shows.. I don't know when it is on.. Does that mean I shouldn't go too?:duh
HotRodMatt ·
What it means is that if you aren't in to rods and kustoms then it's best not to roll up en-masse. It's situations like that which give VW people a bad name at those shows and events.
BenettonVW ·
Do you think there would be enough people on here interested enough to roll up 'en-masse'?
Not having a go, just asking. There can be only... what.. in Vic.. 10?

Hey guys its held at the Phillip Island race track, Jan 7-9th.
VWFREAK ·
I'm interested, but I'm not slammed to the max, just a poor old custom KG.
Details would be great.
jnr356 ·

Lee, you'll have more fun at the Nats anyway. I took my 66 Beetle in 2001 and had a blast. Try hitting wayne up to put one of his monster engine's in for the dyno chalange.(borrow that is). Last time the 4 cylinder winner only got about 150 hp.
buzzbug ·
he is trynig to convince his young apprentice to stick the race motor in his vw for the show, but he won't do it.
this will be my second nats, the first one i went to my cousin took out best modern contempory car, then the year later he took out best special effects paint.
VWFREAK ·
Hey Lee, tell Mick he's soft and go for it.
Cam ·
Coool! I'm there. My car is stock, 100% but still slammed😀 Does that sound cool?
I went to last years show and saw a VW or two. It was a really cool weekend.
buzzbug ·
i will have to have a chat with wayne and learn how to do a decent burn out.
VWFREAK ·
Have we got any start time details etc. Also where dose everyone want to meet to cruise in. The ferry runs from 2min up the road from me at crib point. People are welcome to meet at my place if they like.
ColumBUS ·

Sorry for lack of an update but i dont have a p.c anyway the dates are 7-9 January the place is phillip island.The idea is to show our rides.The idea coming from certain rod clubs interest in slammed accessorised aircooled volkswagens.There will be bands ,beer ,bbqs ,whatever goes its a top weekend.Plenty of camping sites etc.I will be speaking with chopper to find out times etc and will post em asap.I think a show at this level is what the phat vw enthusiests deserve so get involved and help create more much needed shows.D
