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!!

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.
steve 89 - that notch is lookin wicked man, post some more pics im dyin for one. trevor from flat 4 (the club i belong to) got me hooked his is
absolutely beautiful!

My Baby!
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.

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.
