G'Day from Old Skool

Post by old skool »

Hi Gang :) from SA - Adelaide Hills
Well like most on this site, have got bitten by the splitty bug... 6months ago would have not looked at a VW,,,, now have 3

63 split (aka SHITTY THE SPLITTY)
73 transporter and a
76 single cab,

Have been around cars... longer then I can remember, and restored more then my fair share, Mini's Jags' and my pride and joy.. my 1980 Corvette Stingray 8) .

But now it the VW's turn, looking forward to it, and will be picking everybody,s brain. and always ready for a bit of forum banter!

Let the resto begin :shock:

Leigh (aka Old Skool)
