I hope it is enough time... some projects can take longer than we want them to. Mostly because we keep changing our own goal-posts...
Make a project thread and share all with us

Hello all. Vernon from Hillcrest, Dbn. I recently bought a 1958 Karmann Ghia. This vehicle needs lots of TLC and I'm trying to find a company in the Durban area that can assist with some mechanical issues. Thank you in advance.

Welcome and thanks for joining. We love new projects.

How about giving us a tease with photo's of the 1st build, and please open a project thread for the new build, will be inspirational for others.
