Yeah that will be madness Andy.. That should be awesome, and very do-able.. Looks a similar ride height.. mine maybe a little more, but pretty close I would think.. We'll see come November!!

VolksFolks - September 6th, 2004 at 07:38 PM

hey jim, that side is bottomed out on the rear, also its the way its parked, the torsion bar is a lot weaker than the other side, gotta adjust it again to stop it knocking, the front is staying as is, unlike nellies front which is a lot lower eh, yer man will see yous in nov, hopfully not as pissed lol

Looking forward to it mate.

cabrio70 - September 6th, 2004 at 09:54 PM

You guys have made me very jealous. We used to live in Allens Rivulet but are now in WA and I would much rather be down in Tassie still.

How come the VW's are coming out now I have left? I have left a bug down there so maybe when I come to pick it up I will say G'day.

62Deluxe, Did you used to live in Launceston? Just wondering if you are the same Jeremy I met up there at a show a couple of years ago. I had the lowered white 68 Semi Auto(Andrew Robinson's old car).

Cabrio 70, Yes mate that's me. I moved to Hobart a couple of years ago. I remember that show, it was at the auto museum? Did you leave the white one here..........drool..............
Hey Andy, the pics came out great, Had a wicked day...
Looking forward to the breaky run on the 26th.:cool:

handycam - September 7th, 2004 at 06:38 PM

looks like a god day andy must come north 4 the day some time :)

cabrio70 - September 7th, 2004 at 09:54 PM

Yes Jeremy I left the white bug down there. It is halfway through a respray and at the current rate will be finished in another 2 years. Would love to have it back but with the amount of moving around I have done it wasn't worth dragging around the country.


Bought another toy over here though. And maybe if we are lucky a picture of it will even attach itself.

62deluxe - September 9th, 2004 at 03:20 PM

Nice mate, must be tough......................:thumb

sikdub - September 9th, 2004 at 06:15 PM
