Some pics of my 1959 Karmann Ghia (actually bought it for the wife 14 years ago). My oldest daughter (13) is named Ghia after the car.

Hello everyone "shake hands"

I've been reprimanded to come and prostrate meself infront of the court. Ha Ha.

My name is Mario and I'm situated in Gauteng. I drove a Beetle for many years until the budget improved a bit. (I notice while browsing this forum that nowadays driving a Beetle means you are RICH - it's amazing how much people spend on their BUGs)

I recently started with my mid-life crisis and after watching ALL of those shows on Discovery channel (DSTV) about the cars being being rebuilt and modified I decided to tackle a project myself. The obvious choice, to me, was to build a beach buggy since I already knew a Beetle's insides quite well and the fiberglass body is easy to alter.

I'm married and work for the biggest water purification company in Gauteng. YES - if the water tastes funny - I probably fell asleep at work.
That would of course be due to the fact that I was busy working on the buggy the whole night.

To all the original English speaking people out there - please excuse my efforts - I hope they do not offend too much! Ha Ha . (I'm a Boer)

Joking aside - gotta go and overhaul the master cylinder.

All the best

Keep those motors revvin' !!!

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

The beginning is posted under "Projects - revival'" - I hope to record every step on the forum, but it's going to take a couple of months ( maybe more because of suppliers)

This is really a great site! My compliments to everyone who keeps it going.

One last thing - why am I an oil stain?

Why can't I be a uvula (and is that biologically correct)?

Enjoy your week ahead!
