Thanx to Custom Offroad
Just been in Brisbane for a week. While I was up there I thought I'd go and check out Custom Offroad. Just wanted to say a big thanx to Dave, Terry
and Brad for making me so welcome.
:kiss
I walked in right off the street and was given a full tour of the workshop and chatted for the better part of an hour. The majority of the most
serious road regoed offroad VWs in Aust were there and it was great to see the cars up close, including Troy's V6 powered Manx.
Having looked at the cars up close it's easy to see how these guys spend literally hundreds of hours to make them go as hard as they do. Can't wait
to see what they come up with next. Shops like this help to keep the VW scene alive.

Agreed
I've dropped in many times to ask 'stupid' questions and have always gotten advice or help.
They have never asked for anything in return and apart from dropping in a six pack to apologise for my taking up their time I am fairly sure they
won't ask for anything.
Great shop!!
'Ah, whatever................'
