Well im almost 21, but thats still young so im gunna comment!

My first Vw was a 77' Kombi camper named Gypsy Li, I cleaned it up abit and spent a far bit on the engine (cause i had to). I loved that van but my parents didnt really so i sold her!!

Now i have a 71' Super bug! She's pretty! Have started doing little things to her like some rust repair and put white walls on.. She has a recon motor so has been good to me so far and i have been able to work on the engine myself, which is good!!

Will prob buy another kombi one day when i have a proper job cause i love them!!

71 supers seem 2 be popular with the younger ppls here

Im 18 as well, just bought a 1971 super... needs heap of work...paint and rust main problems... cool to drive though.

hi, im fish, im 18, and i drive a 73 L bug.
the car is currently off the road for a paint job. it is being used as a project car for wollongong youth services network graffiti program, to raise awareness of graffiti as an artform, not just vandalism. other than that it is stock standard.
my room mate owns a 75 bus. she bought it for 1000 dollars. when she agreed to buy it was black, but the owner got incredibly high and painted the entire thing in ryal blue house paint the night before she picked it up. after a few moths work she runs very well.

Hey Kara - sorry to hear the Kombi has gone

hey, im 16... 17 in december. Got my 76 bus at the end of last year and have since rebuilt the engine, added gauges and a sound system. Its a camper, i plan on getting rid of the pop top and the gas tank holder etc, and redoing the interior with a full width bed/bench seat.

Hey, I'm Paul, and I'm 15. I live in the US, and own '67 bug, pictures to come.

hi, im dave and im addicted to vw.....

just jk, but it have that feel.

i have a early-mid 1960 beetle, minus a working 1200.

don't know wether to keep or flog. i currently got too much stuff to worry about, but it got sentimental value, and i know i never forgive myself if i sell it....

Hey, I'm Brenton.
I own two 1971 Superbugs!
I've got a picture to come too.

This little darling is Veronika, my 1971 SuperBug.
Originaly Left Hand Drive, she was purchased from FTA (Film Transport Australia), a mob who supplies L.H.D cars for Movie World.

After towing her home from Oxenford, I scrubbed her up, gave her a quick beauty coat and coverted her to R.H.D.

Since then, the only problems I've had are the rear axle nut (You know, the one that's always a prick to get off) falling off due to the fact that she was stripped when she had her RWC done, the headlight relay (Made in W. Germany, 1972) bugger up and the 'cam follower' for the points break off.

Other than that, I've put a few thousand miles on the dial, and I intend to put a few more on untill I get my other '71 SBug on the road.
Only then will she recieve the full resto treatment.

go steve and issac great pics

hey

Hi everyone,

My name is Zach and i'm from Nuriootpa in SA. I am 17 years old, turning 18 next week

I own a 1970 Kombi camper which I bought off eBay for $1900 about two months ago. Since then she's been great and running well although I did have to get the generator and voltage regulator replaced, ($600 dollars worth!).

In the future I hope to get the rust cut out of her and replaced with new panels, a spray job and some interior work done.

Thanks,
Zach.

Let's see if I can get a pic up, here goes.

Me on the night I got her home...




I was a very happy boy.

Her from the front.

And her from the back.




So that's my kombi.
