A while back I was asked by UltraVW if I could cover Tatton Park for a future issue of the magazine. Well it's now in print and I'm chuffed to bits....cheers guys.
Got a call late last night, another bargain priced (BT89) ex-show car had just landed at Oldschool Steves (aka Mr stuffy). Keep an eye on here for more details as he gets stuck in.
After a long search T3D finaly found a Brasilia to slam.... It's amazing what you can do with some nice wheels and a one day slam job. Now for sale, contact info@type2detectives.com for more details.
At £475 they are expensive but I've seen them go for a lot more cash. They are rarer than Rocking Horse sh*t, outstanding condition and the pictures don’t do them justice.
Email dudley.goodfk@btinternet.com for further details.
Gav, the man behind Trailer Queen Restorations has just knocked out another amazing paintjob. I've seen this man's work close up, it's probably the best I've ever seen. Click here to visit the blog.
Having finished the engine and box upgrade on this sweet 67 1500, my friend Gaz had to part with this ride due to other commitments. Luckily a friend’s dad was on the lookout and he’s now the proud owner of this special car. The engine is currently being run in, but it still pulls like a train...
Nothing on this car is repro, you can still see the original sticker behind the Empi wheel.... NICE :o)
Should have the full engine spec tomorrow.
A friend of mine who's been out of the dub scene for about 15 year, recently purchased a 1960 non runner. So far he's made custom bumber brackets and fitted up some stainless bumpers with spot lamp and period badge. It should be running within a couple of weeks, so more pics to follow.... Looking cool so far.
Who said WV garages are crazy ??
That's one fat rear...

Can't tell if this visitor is happy, scared or has wind...
Nice panel, from John Rathbone racing.

Well it looked like the weather was going to be bad, but the sun came out at 11.00am and kept popping out the clouds all day long.... Just checked in the mirror, and yes my slap head is burnt to a crisp yet again. Had a great day, many thanks to all involved.
This picture sums it up (a chilling day), many more can be found here -http://public.fotki.com/vwproject/vw-shows-2008/tatton-park-2008/
