I can, I won't get any work done on the beetle when I'm working in Sydney and living in Canberra

Luckily it's only for 12 months

Yeah, many many years ago. Mine is a full custom resto, not a ratter like his was. But VWFOOL definitely gave me some inspiration to do something similar. Very cool ride from memory.

I wish it was that easy

Got any spare room in your garage while I'm working out of Sydney for the next 12 months, lol

VWFREAK - March 26th, 2010 at 06:24 PM

Thanks Dude, but the build is on hold for the next 12 months due to work commitments

Camo - March 26th, 2010 at 07:29 PM

Pete,

Love ya work and I'm sure you can get a shore leave pass every now and then, lol. You must have been collecting parts for a while now and are finally getting to put her all together. Dont worry about the time frame, I thought mine would be back on the road in 6 months - then plans changed, more modified and here I am over 2 years latter and still not close.

Just had a thought, if you are working in Sydney for 12 months you can always come to my place and keep your hand in, working on my VW :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: You might even get a home cooked meal. Not me, the missus

Kev

P.S. I saw your old beetle car for sale recently, did any thoughts cross your mind :?: :?: :?: :?:
