On its way to Queensland now.

Tried to post pictures but it's too difficult on here - need an upload now button but it doesn't exist - and the pics were only about 30kb size.

Look forward to seeing some pics

Looks solid........lov'n the sliding doors :rolleyes:

11CAB - July 23rd, 2014 at 05:55 PM

Cool

twincab76 - July 23rd, 2014 at 06:22 PM

Yes it's pretty solid - surface rust only. Has the original F125#### engine and running gear, original floorpan, original CB seats. Missing wiper motor and arms,VW badges front and back,wrong tail lights,wrong air filter. Converted to 12 volts.
Those sliding doors are great and there are matching rear fixed ones too but no vinyl soft top and missing one hood bow.Still registered and coming to Valla if I can get it running in time - the owner says it's a runner but we'll see.

Looks like a sound buggy - which part of brissie are you at .

Mine ko200 and my brothers ko526 are at Camphill

Just moved to Redcliffe which is why I decided to finally buy one - perfect for cruising the waterfront!

11CAB - July 24th, 2014 at 01:23 PM

I'll catch up to check it out at Valla.
I'm at Deagon with KO669

Good to see another Brissie CB.

We are at Wellington Point with KO606

twincab76 - July 24th, 2014 at 02:11 PM

Wow there are quite a few in Brisbane - great news - we must all catch up at some stage.

11CAB - the CB is at the mechanic today to get it tuned and see if it will make it to Valla - hopefully will see you there - will keep you posted.

Now running beautifully - I have bought a 12v wiper motor from that Marine equipment place in Woollongabba and will fit it as long as I don't have to butcher the

windscreen surround. Then Valla here I come! Apparently the Jeep CJ6 wiper motor can also be fitted. Anyone with any experience/ helpful advice putting one of these in?
