Sydney to Fremantle in 2 x splits

Post by Griffin »

well we made it over to WA in the 61 bus and 62 single cab.
Amazing trip and great sites. Both cars ran well and sat on 95kmh although it meant some very loooong days

That’s a bloody long drive in a split! Nice work.
Chasing any Neiman steering lock parts, will consider anything.

Bob - I’m back in Sydney now, left the kombis over in freo at our house, will move next year but still ship stock for all air cooled from both Sydney and Perth

Why move? Well let’s see, less traffic, great beaches, good vw scene, good quality of life and houses (compared to Sydney) are cheap as.
