Great pics guys - cheers for sharing. Awesome to catch up with everyone once again….can't wait for 2016!

Was nice to see the end of this bus last week after a very long resto http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/Shanes%2055%20Samba/Jul120146_zps88db855a.jpg http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/Shanes%2055%20Samba/Jul120144_zps9ea8260b.jpg http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/D...

Few more pics and details…. Since we deleted the vents from the sides, obviously there had to be an alternative way of venting luft into the engine bay…..hence the floor vents (scoops will be fabricated to help duct luft into the cavity…..and the engine lid will be dimple died behind the number plat...

Too late to narrow and tub the rear for more wheel clearance..?

Cheers guys, sorry tonz, the time for tubbing and narrowing on this one has well and truly passed

New jacking points and outriggers http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/Project%20DC/Nov49_zps3fdfc163.jpg Belly pans for both sides will help to stiffen the chassis to a degree given the torque this engine will put out and how hard the owner will want to push it into corners! http://i10....

Yeah Jase…it was probably my favourite car of the show to be honest. You tend to get a little bored of the same thing over and over so its always refreshing to see someone thinking outside the box. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/USA%20VW%20Tour%202014/Sacramento%20Bugorama/IMG_0094...

Well its been a whirl wind tour of the USA thus far having arrived in San Fran for a couple days sight seeing, then up to Sac for the Bugorama followed by some R&R (and debauchery) in Las Vegas, and now back to LA in readiness for Pomona on Sunday. Its only now I've had a chance to upload some p...

Ok, back to the DC….and back to the rhinoplasty…. http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/Project%20DC/Aug284_zpsbabd0c52.jpg Late bay indicator holes gone and new vent trim mocked up to ensure aperture was the right size/shape http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/Dasdubber/Project%20DC/S...

You're right Nug, it's been too long once again to update this thread. First up congrats to Maya Kent who won the golden ticket to the USA VW Tour 2014. Itinerary has changed with the Classic moving two weeks back but we rolled with it and decided to head over early for the Sacramento Bugorama (and ...

Not sure mate, what's everyone else doing?

I'm planning to cruise up in a mate's slammed splitty panel (have got that to drive around whilst he's OS).

Well the organisers of the Classic threw a spanner in the works and moved the show back two weeks to 21 June due to a venue conflict…..but alas I've rejigged the entire logistics of the trip to take in the quarter mile drag meet and show up in Sacramento (Bugorama) which I've attended a few times pr...

Nice pics guys - if I didn't have Kai's last day at nippers and my bday shenanigans I would have cruised up for sure. Nice cars indeed!

After we get the new shop setup, may have to have a 'soft launch'/bbq/cruise down here if anyone is up for a trip to the goldy. Will keep y'all posted

Hi folks, For the last five years I've been attending the VW Classic and OCTO meets every June in sunny California, plus a few extra events here and there at different times of the year. Last year I put on my group tour guide hat and escorted 12 other keen Aussie VW enthusiasts over to Los Angeles a...

It's good to know you'll look like a total cock Because I know they'll make me sound like a cock Hopefully Al came to the cock party 8===o Yeah I had to ham it up as well (pressed ham I think) but didn't see the article (she didn't tell me when it was going to print)….tried doing a search on the co...

What was supposed to be a quick tidy up for my niece's first VW turned out to be a complete nightmare with major rust hidden under bog and about 3 months more work than I hoped....but alas her 70 Beetle is done after a full respray inside and out. We were never going for a show car of course, but it...
