:) Just install fenders for the road worthy and then take them off again. That's to say if you have not got contacts at the roadworthy station.

Are you getting your mag locally or are you importing. I cannot afford to import with our exchange rate.

Hey Hard Tail,

I think you are doing a great job man. I was thinking of doing something like this as a 1st in SA - but to a total Rat Look wit uprated floor and suspension and motor...but alas, it seems like you dudes are light years (if 1 looks at current budgetary restraints) ahead of where i want to be...

Would love to know how one posts images on these forum pages...

Go hard or dont go at all...

What motor are you planning for you baby???

Agree 4age, that blue is wicked!!! :mrgreen:

Hey whats the story with the motor...

The Volkworld Mag is nearly R100 bucks at the current rate. Its about half the price if you subscribe to it via web and pay via CC. They deliver to you house or Pbox. I subscribed to Hot VW's in the USA through that way and only didnt get 1 issue trough some technical delivery mistake...lol

hope the building is coming on...
