Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • NSW Hi - no longer lurking

    Hi! I've been browsing the forum for a little while now. I bought my first water cooled VW in January this year when I traded my '74 bay Kombi for a '94 T4 - SWB 2.5 petrol, manual, Transporter with windows and 7 seats. I really miss the bay but the T4 is just more practical for my purposes - daily drive, boat towing, less hassles etc. I do miss the Kombi waves, though!

    I hope I can learn a lot here as well as contribute as best as I can. I have a little panel/paint work to get done to fix a few scrapes (looks like the previous owner had trouble parking) and then hope to get onto the interior, a semi-camper fitout maybe.

    Cheers,

    Baz

    BTW - here's my ride:

    First pic... it was a Canberra vehicle...




    There are a few scrapes and dings to repair... I hope to get a full respray soon:



    To stave off the comments from my air-cooled Kombi buddies, I had this sticker made up...


    Interior...




    Carrying the spirit over from my bay Kombi (Janie)...


    Old scratched and bubbly tint removed and replaced. Best $300 I ever spent!...





    And I have some nice new VW 17inch alloys to go on, when I can afford the new rubber...


    And my wife would like air con... anybody know a good place for retro-fitting air, if I can get my hands on a 2nd-hand unit?

    Thanks for looking!
