Hello Tim (I'm guessing your name from the email address),

Just wanted to introduce myself as a fellow Sunshine Coast Kombi owner. I'm new to the sport so always appreciate any help in parts and advice that someone local can offer. Where are you based and what kind of Kombi you got? You can see mine in the avatar (or go to members rides and see 'My new Kombi, SHREK!!). Shrek is a '76 2ltr with fixed high top, ugly but cool none the less.

Anyhow, catch you around and wave if you see me driving around!!

Cheers,

Joel

im actually heading to montville tomorrow. and i just caught ur question on the baja ute.

it has been in a front on smash......everything is bent.......i dont think there was a straight panel on the car.......about all u could use were the seats, steering wheel, wheels, engine and gearbox. everything else was broken or rusted straight thru.......i dont think ive ever seen a bug that badly rusted.

Hey t3er,I have been going past your wagen for years with the bumper over-riders and say to myself that is a fine example of a T3 I must stop to have a look as I deliver goods to pomona sometimes on my way back from gympie before going home to caloundra.
