Hi guys
I am a newbie on this site and would like to get more involved in the VW car club environment. I own a 1973 VW beetle since 1993. Rebuild it from 93 to 96 and drove it for about 2 years till 98. I then moved from the Free State to Gauteng and parked the car in a garage on a farm in the Free State in 98. I fetched it a few weeks ago 13 years later. lol Just to show how reliable it is, only took a new battery and some filters and is running like a charm.
I currently live in Centurion in Pretoria and would like to join a club in the area, any suggestions?
Cheers

Welcome all the Newbies! PLEASE add where you live to your info so that when you ask for help, the guys living close to you can do so!!

Hi All, I have found out that giving up active work is more about keeping yourself busy, than financial. I am fortunate enough to have the latter covered reasonably well. My fascination with VW's started when my very yuppie daugther re-kindled an old bank of memories about the fun we have in my sisters beetle. Since then I have been blessed with being able to get hold of a 1956 Convertible, and recently a 1969 Bay window bus. Both are work in progress at the moment. Once I've fathomed out how to put pic's onto the site, I will do, so watch this space !! I only found out about ACVW yesterday, so hoping that I can get good advice from the guys in white coats with thick glasses and long beards. By the way, I have absolutely no mechanical knowledge, just an eye for all things beautiful, so the help will come in handy. Till later Ciao !! PC

Welcome to one and all!
