I'm originally from Wigan but have been in Australia for 10 years, currently living in Brisbane. I'm a life long aircooled owner so with VW's in the blood its only right that my son follows suit so we've just bought him a 76 5 door golf.
It looks yellow in the photo but is actually Martini Olive, an Australian colour although its a home paint job and pretty tatty up close.. It needs a good going though but is pretty solid with just a couple of small patches in the floor already plated. It came with a car full of parts as well as a load of history including its original bill of sale and a ton of receipts from the 70's and 80's.
So the plans are just to get it roadworthy and reliable for now. Any prettifying can wait till later
Cheers
Keith

After owning the black cabrio since 1997 its due for a refurb so I'm extending the garage!
