Aircooled VW South Africa

Hi,

Here are some of my old projects...
68' 2.4 torque monster





58 Turbo Karmann






Brazilion Barn Door Bay ( i bought this as a unfinished project, sold it off fairly quickly )





And some of my old fun bugs

And this is my new toy/every day.. bought it a week ago in Cape town, its at a friends house waiting for the pick up truck to bring it up to Durban @ R3000 ( unless someone knows of a cheaper way to get it up here? )

I have said this before im not a Ghia man...but thats one sweet car !

were r the pics

you sure that's in durbs? what's your address?

... my address?? im in Dbn North. I think you're refferring to the Ghia photo..? .. it was taken on the bluff, lookout point overlooking the old airport.

yeah gonna get some of the cousins to come and have a look :0)

naah looking good sir

Aaaaawesome rides bud. SEE SEE! Debben has goode dubs. hahaha. looking good mate. that new buggys schweet.

The bug came with adjustable suspension, and the car had been very well looked after, .. not one bit of rust. Ive been fixing / changing and adding stuff like... brakes, shocks, roll cage, aerial, exhaust, fitted some pimping Iron cross mirrors aswell .. lol . Once the roll cage is complete i'll strip the bug and do a complete respray.. staying silver, but adding a bit of flavour.

Bits accrued thus far for rebuild : Dellorto 36 DRLA's, Big Bore Kit, Large Sump, magnetic sump plug

Still need - mild cam, T shifter, guages, new cylinder heads , external oil filter and a plan for the carbs air filters ( anyone got any of these bits for me plz shout? )

.. love this thing...

Never seen that buggy in Cape Town.

I thought I was the only one with dropped suspension. Well I am now.

Cool buggy

Cool thanks for sharing

Some nice vollas there,wasnt the orange ghia featured in speed n sound as ''baked bean''had a suck through turbo conv

Thats some cool rides you got there. i love the chain steering wheel.

yes it is baked bean ask him to post some pics the other day shot driftz,what power was the ghia making?

Thanks guys..

The Baked bean.. it didnt have a KW number worth boasting about, but it had nice power delivery. An S2000 honda couldnt get away from me through some fast twistys along Umhlanga ridge, infact i had to let off not to hit him I have the SnS article scanned in at home, i'll post it tonight.
