Evening gurus.

I've started documenting my current project nick named "The Bunyip".

Veterans of the forum may remember my last Baja, The Drop Bear.

Please have a look and consider subscribing by clicking on Register (or using the RSS feature). Of course comments are welcome. I will be updating on a weekly basis at least or as required.

In short - The Bunyip is a 65 Beetle soon to be Baja. This is a 6 month rerego and basic Baja conversion. I won't be doing anything too extreme like a pan up rebuild and it will be on a tight budget.

Thanks in advance for all your comments, interest and advice.

It's interesting how I came by it. I did a excel spreadsheet sheet for his business. He was so thankful he bought the 65 for me.

Needless to say the wife didn't know how to react since we didn't have room for another car.

But it DOES have IRS, doesn't it Phil?............Stir, stir.😂

I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!
