New to Australia :-)
Hi guys,
Im quite new to Australia (18 Months), and Ive been in Melbourne for around a year now.
My love for VW's has been growing for around 6 years now and I was deeply upset when I had to give up my heavily MK2 Golf Ryder because I was leaving the UK
I have however found a new pride and joy, MK2 1991 Golf Karmann Cabriolet!
Always wanted a cab bun could never justify it in UK weather!!!!
I bought it with a few things wrong with it but got a pretty good deal, thinking I could replace the parts easily myself - How wrong could I be??!!!!
Trying to find parts for this bad boy is near impossible!!
I did eventually locate a new roof which I must admit was worth waiting for - $1600 inc GST and expertly fitted.
I now however have a new problem, I have replaced the rad with a brand new german one in the hope of solving the water leak, this it did, however I now need a fan as mine went bust an hour after dropping in the radiatior.
I am also on the look out for a new oil sump, and some centre console vents.
Ill post some pics soon if anyone is interested??
Hope I havent bored you guys here, and if anyone in Melobourne is keen to hook up I'll be there!!
Cheers
