oh dear, much mechanical genius!
dak002 ·
Aawwww Chris,
You were there too, and you were grinning, and if you'd bought a car with a throttle cable, like the rest of us, no need for wood,
And as I recall you were the
RAT Beetle PUSHERMAN
for those moments of fun.
rossko.
PS washed your face yet?
hipichic ·
LOL!!! Thats some, er, interesting mechanical work there...
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
turns out the cables all good ross just missing the little circlip that goes on the end of the accelerator rod if anyone has one its still needed
ruckus ·
that's so sweet Chris! looks like some tight-arse modded the late bumpers to the early brackets so not too much damage done at least.Bit worried about your gonads mate. Are they in danger after this latest acquisition?
😀
ren ·
I can't wait to pick this up once you've slammed and whitewalled it Chris. Is $500 still cool? Cheers.
VWFOOL ·

Nice work mate. Loving the patina..
Glad you got rid of that rear bumper..
16's? Now you are talking. I have 5, but not a set.. work that one out!!
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
thanks jim had to get rid of a few previous owner modifications full steam adhead:thumb
splitbusaustralia ·
Looking good pusherman…..
Possibly rub the paint the get a ‘faded’ transition between colours rather than the ‘peely’ look?
I must say that while your last helper was more attractive than Bish (although if Bish went with tighter jeans, a pushup bra and an alluring smile for the camera who knows?) there does seem to be a lot more progress now?
PrettyBlueBug ·
Super ratty!! :P
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
mr king thinks the rat look should be named the shit look any comments from the peanut gallery ? oh rob that cup of tea in the sytrofoam cup was to die for:P😂
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
heres the shitty bumpers should be done by lunch time tommorow :thumb
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
pulled them off the 58 its back for sale ebay buyer fell through :o
ruckus ·
Damn Chris those bumpers are hot!
splitbusaustralia ·
I must admit tea in a styrofoam cup leaves a bit to be
desired but things were always going to go downhill
after your refusal to drink the coffee. What was the billiard ball mouth gag
all about though?
(ed's note - this could be a performance
art joke for all those wondering 'what the?'....)
However, I think I have the solution to the current
problem.....
(it could hang from the rear vision mirror in the 60?)
[ Edited on 7-4-2006 by splitbusaustralia ]
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
nooice one rob or we could go somewhere that makes real coffee but im not a smart man .i think ross might look good on all fours with a billard ball gag doc spanking him with one of those finely crafted wooden empi accessories:P
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·

decked dubby ·
This looks f#ckin excellent.:thumb
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
well the bitch is now registered got my new internet connection and i am now a full time resident of st kilda melbourne i really think i was a bit lucky at vicroads told her the bug was a work in progress :P she gave me the impression she lost her innocence in the back of a bug:P
oh well shes driving sweet as and goes really f#$king well for a 1200 :thumb
my new steering wheel got it from a mate who found it at the tip hope plod dont find me:vader
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
do you think this was a factory option?
dak002 ·
i luuurrrrrrrrvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveee it
probably was a factory option, once,
just like your paint colour,,,,,,
Don't worry about plod, he'll be too busy drooling over the lack of ground clearance to notice the steering wheel..
And if he does, we'll see it on a current affair, as one of the most dangerous cars on the roads....
[ Edited on 21/6/2006 by dak002 ]

Hertz ·
Nah, what i was insinuating was, how long before you get the urge to drop that 1916 in! Then take a photo of it wound off the clock with some dickhead P plate commodore kid in the rear vision mirror crying his eyes out.
CAFFINEPUSHERMAN ·
