Barry here, from Sydney Australia. I will start a “members ride” thread later, but I am just sticking my head in to say hello and mention my 1976 bay that I own as well as a bit of history. I have owned quite a few VW’s over the last 4 decades 1964 beetle……should never have sold it 1967 beetle……should never had bought it 1303 74 beetle…….. learning curve for German Look…..Rust In Peace 1303 74 beetle……….GL replacement 1982 Suth Efricun T3….. my introduction to busses 1988 T3 Caravelle GL……bargain replacement to the 82, till some drugged out freak decided to plough into it at 100km/hr 1303 75 beetle……. My baby and daily for 10 years. Boxster wheels, struts, Recaro’s, 1916 with Dellorto’s. Sacrificed to buy the next T3. 1990 T3 Caravelle C …….owned this for about 12 years now 1976 T2 Microbus……..something I bought a year or two back. Too good to pass up. Add to this a few Golfs, a Polo GTi, a New Beetle and an Eos My bay is very original with virtually no rust. The upholstery is pretty much original as well. I’m a moderator on another forum and the seller was having trouble posting and asked for help. After some too and fro’ ing it ended up in my possession. Anyway, here is a sample
