Hi There,

I always like to see how the other aircooled familymembers in the world are living there passion and create there dreamcar. Nice to see that there is also a VW community in SA :hangloose:

We own at the time 2 aircooled rides, a 56 oval beetle(since 1999) and a 71 Crossover T2 High Roof panelvan (sice 2011).
The beetle is an unwelded car, the T2 NOT.. not even close..

I build the beetle just the way i wanted it with extras from all over the world. Australian Flashtrim, SA Rostyles, USA fenderskirts, German 2x 28pci Express Hannover carbset, Australian sleepingchair seatrecliners - folding gearstick - solid metall sunvicer, Dutch Brink Towbar, some unknown Racks a.s.o.

The T2 is very handy for when the girl wants to come to visit aircooled events :wink: Have some more plans for this ride but first i need to robb a bank, just kidding :wink:

Well I will not be a very active member but i will watch the great rides of you and enjoying it!

Greetings from the cold Netherlands!

Bedankt voor jullie welkomstberichten erg leuk :D

Thanks for your warm welcome greetings :D

And now I am reading your car postings again. Really cool to see the rides and that the SA Beetle for example had the old 5x205 Pattern also in the 70´s. always cool to learn something new about the aircooled wagens in other production countries :D

Dude you got to be a real bad boy/girl to get sanctioned on this site, ask me I know but it sounds like there was a technical problem, give eben/TonyZ/Pine a shout and they can sort it out for you.
This is a very friendly site and we always help people from all around the world. You do need to have a bit of a thick skin sometimes but its all good.
