here is my first vw splitty, picked it up last week for an absolute steal($500) as a resto project. The more i pull it apart the more bloody rust i find. It was sitting in a paddock in goulburn for a while, hence the reason it rusted, but should be a good thing buy the time i am finished.Tell me what you think or what youu know about it or any good ideas.!
i'm trying to work out how to make the pics smaller, it is telling me they are too big, but i am working on it.
any tips? got me ?*&%!
e-mail as many pics as you want dude. I'll re-size them and post them for you, if you want?
*side note* I'll be going out in about an hour, won't be back on until sunday prob.
Depends on what program you use. If you're just using the standard "paint" program; go into "image" then
"attributes" and you should be able to resize it from there (this is on windows XP).
Failing that, goto the "new members" part of the forum, they'll be able to help you better than I can.
make the size less than 50kb. usually 500 wide. and you should be larfin. my bus was 800 and it didnt show the rust but it certainly was there.
right click on pic, open with paint, click image,then click sketch and skew, horizontal = 30 vertical = 30, Should be about 6' x 3' on your
screen, try that

i think this picture is cool.
mate that seems like a good score from where i am sitting. might have to do something about the front tire mount and those very weird tail lights...
but congrats man. look forward to seeing what you do with it.
looks great $500 is a good price. i am looking for a cheapie to restore myself. where did you find this one?
i found it from a web site called http://www.clubvw.org.au in the classifieds section:beer
Oh Man
$500 bucks, and a reasonably easy resto. What more can you ask for. The gods are smiling on you..:thumb
Rob....
Looks all right you lucky bugger! Some of us would love a splitty but have to settle for a bay! PS - Your sister in law is a bit of a spunk!
That is an absolute bargain :thumb
that's the rumor surfkombi:repuke
I like your Kombi - it's effective, different and it has good size fillets!
yes gooba:repuke
well surfkombi,only one of two things could happen:kiss
Very cool rustybus.......:thumbGood find.
after a big help from bumpstopbus i have found out that my splitty is actually a '63 model that was made in dec. '62. i'm not sure that the person who i bought this off knew this was the case.BIG thanks to bumpstopbus, he knows what he is on about.:bounce:bounce:bounce:bounce
