Hi Herbie 123,
Good to hear from you, your dad did my 1st Fastback Engine wayback in 1972.

We also stayed in Halfway House, and my folks and your folks were good friends.

Small world.
Does Superwagen still exist, or is it now VEE Motor's ???

You dads place always looked like a VW carpark ...Goodtimes.... :cry:
