well it's been just over a week and i have work under way
now i know it's no where nere as good as wes's or other baja but i like it
i wanted a buggy for offroading and that i could use in the cold and rain and did not want to spend to much so this is what i got

first job was to remove all the crap from the inside dirt ,paint,bolt's etc

then the baja kit was only just hanging on and needs a little work so it came off

next job was so rust repair so off with the pan and a clean and paint as well

it had a kombi motor in it before i got it and was efi
as it will be only used for a buggy i have taken the wiring out and going to do basic for the buggy

last job to day was get the breaks going
after 500ml of new break fluid and a lot of brown crap out the other end seams to be ok

and thats what i have been up 2
and loving it
i wanted to but a 2" lift kit on but $$$ are low
have got a few pic's and will be adding more as i go to keep track of what i have done

man wires bloody every dam kombi's

this was the hight i wanted for my lift kit

man takeing a pan off one your own is a pain in the ...

the pan is good apart for the battery tray and a coat of paint and she will be as good as new

mate with a little work that will be one awsome baja
cheers
could you give an approximate on cost or u2u it to me as i'm looking at getting one in the near future

Good score....Might have been easier to remove the seats first.....I took everything out the the car first , like seats gearshifter etc before we removed the body, then the two of us just lifted the body off.

looking good mate but whos working at the motel at the moment:P
deon
