Hi cam070,(kev)
Not sure, the 1st one was my very first car which I had back in 94-95 and the silver one and the Manx we had around 99, we sold both the silver one
and the Manx to a guy who had a car yard, last we heard he had trouble selling them then they got stolen. (I know this because I kept the plates and
have been pulled over a few times to be checked because on the police computer they are down as being on a stolen silver bug.
I would hate to think that both had been stolen and destroyed as they were both nice cars.just need to change the 1835cc for something else as it was
not a great engine, but the rest of the car was awesome.

and my T4, this first customised T4 in the UK (the world?) it was an exbuilder white van, very rough inside, but ok outside.
it was the loudest van in the UK for a few months too (officially recorded at 220db), there was over £2500 in paint alone, LOTS of strobes, neons,
leds, and even a lazer in the back, strobes fitted in the front and rear lights, it was fully tricked out!! and i used it as my daily driver!

I nearly bought the yellow chop beetle in about 1985, it had those same moon discs and was for sale at The Bug shop (Cartech) on South Rd, It was as
it is in the pic but obviously before that pic was taken

He was into old gassers and hot rods.

Sure is that Rex Webster, there was an article on him in a recent Street Machine where he spoke of the FJ and the Ghia.
Cool ride, I hope its still looking good?

First VW was a 58 I picked up from a wreckers for $1000
Decided I wanted a Baja Bug, so I ended up swapping it for this 61. It had a 12V conversion and a 1600TP in it
Then did the Baja conversion
Then my little fella came along and I had to sell it. That was about 6 years ago. Only just bought another VW about 3 months ago.

Here's a pic of my dad with his 61 gulf blue beetle. I'd love to track this beetle down if it's still alive. Rego was ANL789. No copy of the VIN
number unfortunately.
It used to run around the northern beaches in Sydney.
