very very very cool bus but what do all the switches do?

loving the pop out rear window i got to get me one of those where'd you get it from dude?

they control the front spots the drivers door spot the stereo amp and one is Turbo Boost :lol: And yes the rear widow is an early creative one which was an absoulute bastard to fit :twisted:

And Faux no mate i didnt use a kit i made it from different bug parts etc and modified the og brackets and fitting it isnt hard tbh :wink: And no i had a stock 1600 but it dropped the revs by 1000rpm :shock:

Cheers, How was it with the 1600? Was it ok? What drive shafts and CV's did you use?

Sorry for all the questions

I was looking at your supertrapp at volksworld show when you parked with restowagen in the paddock. How does it sound?

I also remember RTTS when men and motors were filming, mainly because we had a big green baja that they used for the piccie on the website and was spotted about 10 times in the programme as well as being interviewed.
Did you get the DVD of the show?

My bro has the DVD at the moment, when i get it back i will see if there is any info on the company that made it. It wasn't a snazzy packaged DVD, just a burnt copy in a slip case!

 

[Gadget Boy]

hey dude if you can burn me a copy im sure I can sort you a beer
