CBB at Penrith

Best of Luck........

hehehe yes it will 😉

i want to get it as close as possible to the herbie in herbie goes to monte carlo,

with monza style gas cap, Carello fog lamp, and wide racing wheels, all i need is some good year tires with Outlined White Letters,
i allready have the herbie stripes and numbers, i got them from america.

Shame Dave Basten's retired. I would have recommended him. He did some really nice restos, and some fun mods. I always jumped at a chance to drive one.

It will look so good! nothing better than a well done herbie! Note: well done. There are a lot of subpar afternoon jobs around.

yes it is a shame some one like that is no longer in the biz.

ill make it look good dont u worry, im a perfectionist. so if im gona do something like this, ill go all out.

It depends on what you want done to the car. Have you worked out your budget ??

Should check out Kimm Garland @ Indian Automotive in Kingswood

What you want is a good paint and panel shop.

Fossil is right, Indian Automotive do excellent paint and panel work, in fact Kimm is a qualified panel beater, but he is not cheap. That said, he's a fanatic and is really fussy about get rid of any rust and then preventing it coming back.

I know volksbahn don't do paint and panel work, just mechanicals and parts.

Klaacks at Fairfield can organise it all and do the mechanical stuff for you too.

Do CBB do paint and panel work Matt?

But yeah, figure out how much you have to spend first.

Be careful about SKH, quality workmanship but.......
