Did anyone see the 23 window splitty at the Motor Show. It is on display as part of Shannons Show and Display, absolutely free, so if anyone wants to
see a good example. Plenty of dubs in there, some for sale by auction as well. Dub stand in the motor show isnt too bad either, got the new R32 golf,
schweet!!! WRX blue too!!

saw the splitty yesterday... looks nice...:thumb
Going tonight 
Pictures? Details? It wasn't Rob King's, by any chance?
dont know whos it was, but it was green and white - didnt take the camera!!! keep an eye out for the red karmann ghia convertible beetle, nice car but the price??????
Just a correction, Its a Karmann Cabriolet Beetle. As A Karmann Ghia Convertible is totally different (Now IM not having a go at anyone, just correcting someone!, and to tell you the truth, Shannons even have it advertised as a Karmann Ghia Convertible beetle!)
damn.... knew i'd get it all wrong....lol but you didn't offend... i only repeated what was there... still newbie at this game and get
soooooooooooooo damn confused with all the different names everything seems to have. so thanks for the correction. 
Thats Cool, Just last time I corrected someone, it seemed to get a little heated... I actually was very Interested in that red cabriolet, as I had seen it at DOVW rang the guy and he stated he wants a lot for it, and When asked if he would part exchange the answer was NO I WONT! But in the end he wanted about 17K, nowhere near what shannons is asking....But they got to make money too!
when does the show end ? I didn't get time last weekend.
I think its 6pm 8th March...might get a chance to go this weekend...

sounds good for this weekend:thumb
the green and white one is owned by a Garry i think, old porsche fanatic with good taste
Good high ratio of vee dubs in the Shannon's display
Shame the show itself was a waste of money.... my personal opinion. It seems to get more and more boring every year. :-\ Is it just me?
no its not just you... i thought it was a tad on the yawn side too.... not much new stuff from the locals... just the exotics.
Not too much exciting at all....
Last year the most exciting thing was a colour scheme I thought would look good on a split screen kombi... (ice blue with cream stripes)
This year... nuffin!
hopefully it will be at the shannons display and the gp this weekend, i'm going on friday, Cant wait!!

has anyone gone to the motorshow extra? supposed to be just down the road (in the old toyota factory or something), its free and has all the trade displays and the camping and RV stuff. thats what it said in the paper anyway!
its just outside the back doors of the exhibition centre if its what I'm thinking of... not as good as when it used to be in with the cars. no vicroads to check for custom plates....

mmm. just went today. speedsters were VERY cool. did anyone look at the prices in the shannons auctions? most of the stuff seemed overpriced, but then there was a 1959 KG looking beautiful, withno reserve, for an estimated price of 7 - 11grand. isnt this very cheap!?!
Don't any of youse blokes own a camera?

I was a real nuffy and didnt charge my batteries in my digital camera before i went. So i got the speedsters but i couldnt take photos of shannons
