Hi ya Paul - my name is Jenny and I am from good ol' Brisbane and have been dubbin' for more years than I would really want to say.....have knocked around since the 80's in some of the most clapped out pieces of crap that at that time were allowed to be on our roads ranging from a delapidated 54 Oval (which I see the road going under my feet), a 71 super Bug which I just had to totally Carrera (as you did in the 80's), then onto a Type 3 Notch which also was another wonderful example of what you can get away with....
I currently have my daily driver a 75 L bug known affectionately as Sunny and my darling 1956 Oval by the name of Treasure (no need to explain that one)....
My hubbie and I also have added to our shed a new T5 dual cab all wheel drive ute at the end of last year.
My days of heaps of crap are fortunately behind me but all of these cars I still love and miss and would never had been seen dead in anything Jap, Korean, etc. etc. plus I still to this day enjoy the company of many of my dubber mates. Thanks for your welcome....
I have only experienced air con and modern conveniences now with the T5, but my love is still the oldies....

Yes I have a '65 1200, going to start looking for something older to add to my fleet in the next few months, maybe an early Oval project car.


Would be great to see some pictures of your car if you have them to put up on the forum.


sunnygirl - February 17th, 2009 at 09:22 AM

Howdy there Joel - its been nice meeting these new friends, but sure good to hear from someone I know - Des is asking for photos I will have to get some advice on that side of things as modern technology has left me behind in the instamatic camera years.......will check with Rackie, I'm sure she will be able to help! Catch yas when you maybe online. :spin:

Hi ya Paul - long time no chat....It's great havin' a day off work and now being introduced to this forum - I feel this will become quite an obsession and terrific time waster! Dubs by the Pie was great fun as always and I was chuffed to see a photo of Treasure amongst the others. They probably could still call it Dubs by the Pub as that is where we spent most of the day knocking down way too many cold beers!:smilegrin:


Fern ButterBug - February 17th, 2009 at 06:20 PM

Hay SISTA SISTA welcome aboard cous, and yes ABOUT TIME TOO (now there's a reason for me to visit the forum again as I've been a stranger for a while).

At least you'll be able to waste time on the forum instead of that Wii.

Welcome aboard cous - love ya XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

RACKIE :lol:


Fern ButterBug - February 17th, 2009 at 06:22 PM

PS: yes we need to get you organised with a photo cos I know the last time I saw you, you weren't purple and didn't sport that silly question mark.....:lol::lol::lol::lol:


sunnygirl - February 17th, 2009 at 07:35 PM

I have told Rusty that between my dubs, hubbie, you guys, the rest of the family, dogs, home, birds, the Wii and now this bloody forum something has got to go - I CHOSE THE JOB!!!!! I got no real positive response on that one. I will now check out your profile and get some ideas - love ya heaps & we have had a candle going for Marnie since Saturday (in case he gets lost) NOT!! :spin:

Hi ya Miss VDub - what are you going to call yourself after the big day (is a date set yet)???? It is always great to catch up with you and Bob and yeah we will have to arrange a time for you guys to come on out the country and check out our feathered friends - bring along Nemo if you like as we would love to meet him too. Let us know of any times you guys may be free and we may be able to 'lock it in Eddie'.

Now I am officially on the forum we can catch up at any time.

Take care and say gidday to Bob & well done at Dubs....
