Re: Spotted in Edenvale
I like it, love the air scoop on the roof and the rear lights. I think the Darkside is reborn!

Re: Spotted in Edenvale
Hi
That's my rat ..
Built her in 2013 .. Sold her late in 2013 ... But sadly the dude who bought her trashed the gearbox within a month
Idiot thought it was a race car...
Check out my build on here somewhere I documented the build..
I've been out of the aircooled world for a while been cycling
But a serious cycling accident had me crush a hip in October and needed a hip replacement ..
I've sold my bicycles and tomorrow and tokeep me sane
I have decided to go back to the vw building hobby..
Tomorrow I take on my next Baja project ..
I can't walk yet but will document the build on this forum again ..
Will start tomorrow with a donor vehicle intro ..
Prob begin the work in 4 weeks when I'm able to walk crutch free again ...

Re: Spotted in Edenvale
I've seen a similar matt black baja buggy in Mellville a few times over the last couple of days. Also spotted another baja in northern Jhb this week. Are baja buggies making a comeback?
