thanks to Chris for telling me , thank you for the info .

You taking the 23 window down W ? = green van with rust holes in the roof

& the driver has one long left arm and one short right arm , now he will be easly spoted in the mass of people down there on the day .This has all come about due to one very short vw gear stick .

*news to hand , the drive also has a power full right leg to to the poor brakes in this beast .😀

Don't thank me, I only tripped over the info anyway and it was "W" (as you say) that told me that it was on.....lol

seagull ·

5PL1TDCS10N ·

You both are going to give me a complex, but hey, at least I can ring a bell real well huh?!

Hey If you can't have a real 23 just let the rust create one N! hee hee...:duh

seagull ·

Desert Moose ·

Attention Seagull and DMoose...

I was called by the powers that be today and they said that you are banned from the show. Sorry guys.
If you do decide to brave it then bring mouth guards please(and helmets too)

seagull ·

:vader

can I bring some race tape as well , I did hear its good for holding down the roof on green splitys W , You can apply the tape and paint right over it no one would know its there .You only need to replace the tape when the sun gets to it * this makes it lift * and expose the nasty bits .

Mate I hope you dont have this for sale down there W , hee hee :beer

You were a busy boy Danny....
How the heck did you get you baja there if you were driving the truck?

WABaja ·

Morning:
Drove the truck to Freo, waited 20 minutes for someone to turn up and open the museum, moved a '57 Caddy convert out, loaded up the '46, put the Caddy back, Careful trip to Burswood to drop off '46..
Race home in truck, get Baja ready to fire up, find Split fuel hose, load up anyway, go to All Parts, buy new hose, fix on truck, drive to servo, replace missing tank load of BP Ultimate at 112.50 Per litre then on to Burswood with Baja on truck...

Afternoon:
Repeat process in Reverse without Fuel hose incident, then onto North beach for stolen car recovery tow, go home and Collapse in chair...🙂

Da Wiz ·

Good thing I went, it caused me to sleep better at night!

You always sleep better when dreaming of volksy's don't you 😀

WABaja ·

For those in Perth that can get the Access 31 channel on their TV, Cruizin' (Monday nights @ 8.30pm) will feature the show from the weekend on Monday 13th Dec', and the parting shot at the end of the show should be a bit of fun too...:P

humpty ·

And the 'parting shot' will be?????
How do you know this stuff, Danny?

Anybody know the results for the day? Did Keiran win the bus class?

Desert Moose ·

And the 'parting shot' will be?????


A big red baja thingy with some dude driven off ( or around and around ...lol)


And I think he did with the bus class (if not it's riged...lol)

humpty ·

I reckon you'd be right if someone else walked off with it...That 23 rocks!

Kierans couldn't hang aound all day, so he missed the speeches.
I was over at his shop today and he said he hadn't been called yet, wonder if they will notify him?

VDUBXTC ·

WABaja ·

Yeah he messed the first one up, so we had to do "Take 2"..

VWFREAK ·

Looks like a great day.

Streetbuggy ·

the show was pretty good. I stayed for a few hours and some good cars turned up.

Yellow oval was the car i liked most at show, Samba was cool but so was that low mat black split.
good to see a few buggies there as well

si
(now in singapore)

humpty ·

That oval was for sale.....Shame really, hope it goes to a good home.
Antony's matt black splitty is very cool, lovely to drive too
Can you believe he drives that thing to Mandurah 4 times a week (150km round trip!), and carry's furniture and limestone water features around in it!
Did you catch our interviews on 'Cruizin'?
Good stuff huh.....Got my 15seconds of fame!

WABaja ·

And I got to have a dig at the Murray never having VW's on the show...

Oh, I got asked to take a camera out for our next trip to the tracks and get some action footage for them to use on a future show...
I'll be planning a trip for some time in Jan or Feb if anyone's interested in some mild off roading on Rally Australia style tracks...

Look for the return of "The Baja & Buggy Bash"...:bounce
