Anyone in Melbourne need a hand with there VW?
Hi all,
So basically anyone who needs a person who is fairly experienced with VW's to lend them a hand to sort their VW problem out.
I'm an Electrical/Electronics Engineer, so VW electrics are a breeze, and have been working on cars since I were a wee nipper. Hence,
welding/bodywork/brakes/engine rebuilds are all pretty straight forward for me.
I'm just looking for a bit of extra cash right now whilst looking for a new line of work, got bored of the engineering available in Oz, so something
to help with the bills and keep me occupied would be grand.
I'm pretty cheap and can work with you to find an amicable solution.
So if you need something fixed or need a hand just flick me a PM with details of what's up and I'll get back to you.
Cheers,
Mike

Not a prob Mike. I emailed you my phone number, my beetle is pretty well sorted. Just need a hand with adjusting doors so visor will fit, getting horn
to work, speedo cable and light, heater cable and few other little odd bits and pieces.
Speak soon.
Thanks.
