Beside him sort of maintaining me,.....I don't quite know what he is going to do next?? Oh!!!! My cousin Goose need a gearrod bush replacement!!,.....it,s a real shatty job!!😂🤣. Good luck Nick,.....maybe you can stop digging in my 'innards' for a while!

Haans lyk goed. Sekerlik baie harde werk gewees.

We don't want that to happen...
So maybe just leave his name as Haans.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).

Well done Haans. That is something to be very proud of.

If you decide to change the name - change it to Hansie :D

Come to think of it, Hansie sounds like a well-groomed, side-parting, well mannered and old fashioned lad.

It suits your Ghia well.

Well done Nick, looks stunning.
Now you Ghia guys must organise a meet. There were quite a few superb Ghias at the last Aircooled show in Pretoria.
Wanted parts:
Left sunvisor
Sink faucet
Exhaust to swap for Beetle exhaust
