Hi folks, just discovered this place. very kewl!

Does anyone know where in Qld that I can get a baja kit for my sorry old '60' beetle? Preferably a Cheetah. I had one in the 90s but sold it :(

Now I want another one!! Can you blame me??

I have one $500 used but complete

Cool, you certainly have my attention Buggy Brad!

Any pics? What breed of kit is it?

I would also consider a complete baja or project if there are any out there for the buying.

I have a 1976 2lt Auto Kombi and the before mentioned 1960 1300cc bug which would be considered for barter (I love barter). I'll see if I can get some photos up in the next week or so

Kit is a Cheetah and is sitting at Custom Vee Dub as someone said they were buying it and I dropped it down there. Was a mix between Terry's Red Baja and my Blue one. It is all cheetah and all from the same mould.

These are the two bajas mentioned

Custom Vee Dub is at 28 Hayward St, STAFFORD, QLD and are open from 8 - 5 Mon to Fri. Dave is coming out tommorrow to use my Wheel Aligner so I will let him know that someone is interested.

Where are you located ?

As for the transaction you can just give Eileen or Dave the cash and they can take it off my Subaru Conversion Bill for my Beetle.

That sounds easy enough! The earliest I can get up there is most likely next weekend though.
I live near Jacobs Well and unfortunately have to work through till then

Muchly Appreciated!!

I still want that kit BuggyBrad.

Just out of interest, are they thick enough for rego?

Yes, they are fine for Rego. Cheetah kits are widely regarded as the best kits out there. But I'm biased :)

Thick enough for rego ?? There is a thickness req'd ??

Either way the kit is approved by QLD Tpt so there will be no issues.
