it's beautiful. great tech, and the grit just lets you know it's being used for what it was intended. i'm deeply envious.

Amazing work man! thanks for sharing. Keep us updated.

it's been a long build with a couple of colours..........

That's a tweaked out ride.
Got any links to the 'glass?

hey Ozzie, assuming you mean the fiberglass?.....

the bonnet, rear carbon fibre wing and "w" deck lid are customs we make here........the guards are "aero" style fiberglass that are also made down under, i can find a link to them if you like,

Hello boys,yeah thats my Dub Racer Orange one,its had a color change and lots of new goodies. Thanks Damo posting those pics.

Ya know,I am in love too now.

If I could find a way to ship my stuff, I might have to move to OZ.

I doubt the wife would understand the reason to move halfway around the world is over VW's though.


Rob

Thanks Rob, Yes iam in love as well but also has been a headache too ....Anyway just fly to Aust. and visit for a holiday that might get things started JVLRacing

She and I really want to, but the airline prices really put a halt to that, and besides, we have not even seen all of the US yet.


Rob

PS I love that notch, I have a 68 that I would absolutely love to build to that level.
