Part of the DTA group who all know their stuff when it comes to aircooled and lowering and stuff.
The latest Hayburner magazine featured one of their project's which made the front cover, check it out if you haven't already.

In ACE we trust! ;)

Quick update:
As of yesterday evening and completely unexpectedly 'Aircooled Engineering' have pulled the pin on fitting my air suspension to the rear for one reason or another.

Annoying to say the least as I'd just forked out £30 for next day delivery on the parts, which are due to be delivered this morning and to which I now have to drive over and collect at some point.

Right now I'm obviously disappointed by their decision and feeling a bit deflated and let down (if youll excuse the puns ;))
But there is a 'Ray' of hope.....

Just waiting to hear off Rayvern Hydraulics over the next few days to see if he can re-schedule me in, as I was originally going there to have this fitted on 27th of this month, but he has a **** load of work on, and is going to struggle now to fit me in before Volksworld, which was my original target.

Here stands testimant to the highs and lows of having air ride fitted!! :lol:

It's shocking :!: how some companies do business.

Hope that ray of sunshine does appear for you ;)

Oh no foz not again
Hope the guys come through for you

I know....youd think I be making this **** up right? :|
You couldnt write it!! :evil:

God I wish I had my own workshop. .....that would be the end of relying on vw specialists ever again!!

But that aint happening so I just gotta hope Rayvern comes through for me this time....and not just talks a good job!!
Updates to follow, but ive now resided myself to not getting this completed for a while, until I can find someone reliable and true to their word. :(

If Rayvern can't do it asap you would be better off waiting till he can, he has been doing it for over 20 years. He has had a beetle called the joker and he did a split bus years ago.

Yeh thats my thinking now radish. I'll just wait till he is able to do it. He said he will try again to sort me out....fingers crossed. :roll:

Olive went in at the weekend for some much needed bodywork touch ups, in preparation for Volksworld.

I got rained off work today, so took the opportunity to go see how things were progressing. .......

She currently has a more patina look to her right now, lol.

Some progress pics sent to me from the bodyshop today. Its not looking a very good match colourwise :lol:

Work on Olive is being done in between their normal jobs, fitted in as and when they can, so its going to take a little longer than normal....but most importantly finished in time for Volksworld!
