Hi everyone, here is a few photos my dad took sometime in the 80's at the day of the VW at Albert Park in VIC before Albert Park was turned into a GP track. Where are they now?

Well my car is still on the road. It is the VW blue VW1500 parked under the tree next to the split window Beetle. My VW wasn't in the show but I have no idea why the split wasn't. Never ceases to amaze me why folks with great cars don't want to enter them in shows. BTW, my Beetle was not show worthy then and is less so now but still going at least.
Cheers.....Wayne

The splitty with the vents in the engine cover looks like it has SA rego- didn't Richard Newbery do one of those many years ago?

yea your right NB, pretty sure it's going through a rebuild at the moment. Interesting story about how he got the split clip. Ask him next time you see him.

Thats what promTed my memory- I remember the story. I also remember him telling me about all the early stuff, including new split bumper bars and overiders being tossed to the dump.
