Found at the VW nationals, 25th May 08.
Was stripped back in 2001. All the parts were placed in the car. It sat under a tiny carport in the southern highlands for the next 7
years.
I wish the last owner had done something more to it. 
I'm pleased to see it's finally moved. What's in store for it DD?
had a look at this
it is in remarkable condition for a 50 year old neglected car
Love the brake adjusting guide on the inside passenger rear guard area 
yeah i saw it but thought he was asking abit much im sure youll make it a ripper damo

I narrowed the standard beam 2".
Decklid was totally rusted off at the bottom. The car came with a donor lid, so the bottom was replaced. I then blended the lower paint so it
now looks un-touched.
nice work damo 
Interior is all original.
Still has a nice covering of moss.
Thanks to Kimm from Indian who donated the missing VW bonnet emblem.
Cheers Luke.
All mechanicals have been gone over. All new brakes, master cylinder, lines, wheel cylinders etc.
Engine is a 1500 from a 69 bug. All electrics are now 12v.
Check the tank!
As i said yesterday, nice metal-work, very talented Damo. Hope you got some sleep last night.
Here's a few more of Dr Karl.
Tucked in...
Dr Karl and a couple of hoods
Dr Karl celebrating rattiness - you can really see the hard work that Damo's done on that rear lid matching up the old, and older paint. Top job.
Dr Karl's first cruise

Nice one Damo. You've done it again.
You have done a great job looks cool,i have two questions im guessing you had to get a blue slip did you have any trouble with getting it passed with only semaphores and how did you get to keep the old plates,im just wondering about the blinkers because im selling my 58 and it only has the trafficators cheers shane.
looks awesome as expexted damo ,t2 if u read u might recognize that that car is a friend of yours which had put the price on it.And what r u doing looking at beetles anyway "mr anti beetle mafia" your a closet beetle lover.. ,as with the passat mr torrens u shiat stirrers ha ha nice try
looks like i hooked a big one , better adust the drag
That is just awesome. I looked at this car at the Nats and thought it had potential but to see it back on the road in a month is unreal. Makes me look slack as I'm still trying to change engines after 3 months.
