I would really like the opportunity to talk to people in Adelaide who know about VW's, mine needs some serious loving but I really don't know where to start. All I've managed so far is to change the fan belt and fix some of the wiring. I also like drinking beer!!:beer:beer:beer

... well, hey, count me in too.

For another week or so I still have a conventional car, a Subaru, about to be sold before we commit headlong to our '67 beetle and '79 kombi. So if anyone needs a lift anywhere after their VW breaks down then look me up!

Cheers,

Hi, a NEWBIE to Beetles...is there another vehicle that has the same stud pattern as a 67 BUG?....I want to put mags on my new girl when she's finished being restored...I've been told some horrendous prices to do it ....as special wheels need to be made to suit .....is that correct ?.....cheers .....vikk777:rolleyes:

Hi All,

Is anyone out there clued up on T3 Caravelles?

I have an 86 Caravelle which has a buzzer that goes off when I am slowing down (eg when I'm in 4th gear and slow down to about 50km/hr a buzzer in the dash goes off).

If anyone can help that would be great.

Cheers
