I flew to Adelaide last week to check out the bus and the plan was to bring her back, this didn't work out as planned. At least I got to view it. Hopefully will be with me again soon so I can continue on...

Having trouble with posting these pics will try again

Geez!!
That is gorgeous.
It almost makes me want to rethink the colour mine is being sprayed......almost.

Thanks, the colours look great, will post up some more photos this week. She is very straight. Will hopefully have here in Queensland soon.

I'm still after an engine for her if anyone has or knows of any.

Have you gone the IRS route, zeuspig?

looks really good! what exactly is IRS? I know it has something to do with brakes or height or something and you can get an IRS kit from Kim Garland at Kruizinwagon, but that's about all.

You bringing this to Mooloolaba I hope.
What do you need in the engine department?

zeuspig · Post by **zeuspig** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 3:47 pm

Thanks for the comments. It does have IRS fitted and front discs.

I will be at Mooloolaba in a couple of weeks. Not sure if the bus wil be coming straight there or I will be taking it elsewhere to get somemore work done to it, it's hurting the pocket at the moment. But it is getting there.

Oh and in relation to your question IRS is independant Rear Suspension to make it handle better etc.

As for the engine, I am open to any suggestions it has a beetle gearbox in it. When I bought it, it had a 1200 but I got rid of that as want something bigger.

I would also like to chuck some decent sized wheels on her but have been told I am pretty restricted with how far I can go?
