I am not sure if this is available in australia. But discovery turbo here in Asia has a show running at the momement called "beetle crisis" it follows a restoration of a beetle, from strip down to first show. Its based around one shop in the uk. Though it doesn't show all the little details it does have some pretty cool ideas and really shows whats its like to restore a VW. the next series jsut started call Van Crisis, in which they restore a splitty.... a very rusted Uk one.... should be interesting.

Cheers

Campervan Crisis has just finished at like 10 pm Friday nights. Beetle Crisis is about to start a re-run at the same time slot.

Honestly, I would have ditched that bus - it was practically unrestorable. Amazing work by the welder, but hard to say how much of the original bus is left.

thanks,
