Engine bay is a bit cleaner now.

And redder, obviously

More red to come!

You don't have any UK contacts that could track down some tail lights for me by any chance?

Nice work there Peter, does it handle like a boat under a king tide? The one I had did, it was well umm ... fun particulalry around round-abouts with the rear end skidding out

Can't drive it 'till I get that guard off the tyre. I'll probably need to replace the shocks they seem a bit tired.

(I did drive it round the corner in the photos when we unloaded it from the tow truck. The tyre was dragging all the way. It's not safe to unload a truck out the front of my house and the driveway is out of the question.)

Probably more passats left in Oz than in UK.

That crazy bloke with 100 vws in a field near Goulburn would probably have some. Volksapart? He is often in the trading post?

There are pics in here of his place. I went there once.
