Hello,

I am from NZ and about to start on a single cab project.

Thanks for letting me join your forum and for all the great info here.

Single cab is a '62 and looks to need the normal repairs:

Looks like a solid base. What do you know of its history?

Apparently it was a Dunedin City Council vehicle initially, then it's had about 15 owner since then including key members of a couple of VW clubs around the place. It's been off the road for 23 years and passed around for a restoration which has not happened yet.

It does look fairly solid, it will be great to dive into it and see exactly what I am up for. I was told to buy the best I could afford, so sold my beetle and put it all into buying this project. Funds will be low and slow to get her back on the road now!

Great to see you there, mate. You missed a good Nats over here, Mikki.

Cheers Tedz.
