i need to find a place to get my 1981 scirocco dashboard restored. its cracked in all the ussual places.
-
bump
-
Go to DOV! :angry:
-
^^^^ that's golden man! Golden! hahahaha
-
YA WTF is a Shittrocko?
-
this is a restoration question, one that i hope someone on this forum will be able to answer.
there are aftermarket dash pads availalbe, but as we all know, the repro crap doesnt fit and isnt of the same quality.
If you can help, then please do, if you cant, than don't waste my time or yours
this is a picture of a very nice restored scirocco in the USA

Who cares, it's a shitrocko.
And this is an AIRCOOLED forum go ask at DOV.
-
it is aircooled.. i put my 36hp from my beetle in there.

Uhm yeah ok.... Dumbass :angry: You are not wanted here.... [_[
-
Ya go hang out on the samba - of wait they think your an idiot too.....hmm see a trend here?
-
Well maybe he's not asking in the most ideal place, but give the guy a break. Besides, this information could turn out useful for all sorts of people in the future - regardless of what car they have. Think happy thoughts guys. [_[
Unfortunately I don't know of any vinyl resto places. Hopefully someone can provide some useful information to ya.
But yea, maybe the vwdov.ca would yeild more appropriate responses :huh: .
-
give the guy a break
He got one - a few years ago!
-
I'm hoping Aircooled and you have history James/Pointblank. Looking at it from someone who has never heard of him before you both are looking like Samba Rant and Ravers. Although not the best forum for the question perhaps an answer is still available. There are enough of us here with enough of a history in VW's to at least know where to send him. I wish I had an answer but sorry I don't. I have although seen some amazing restorations done on vinyl.
2 cents................ it's all I have to spare
-
Well.
When you start slammin peoples rides... Like he did, we tend to stick up for our buddies,Funny you mention the Samba Rants... I take it you read them... well then you know JHC? Aircooled is him the one and only Jacob, Check out the members post about Hoosier Daddy's Rims. [_[

and if you missed the banner, why would you post a restoration question in the lounge when there is a...
Restoration, Preservation & Body work Forum
The place to talk about Restoring & Preserving classic Air-cooled VW's.
smells like s#!t to me.

it's not called thugging when you're trying to help the less fortunate.
hey matt, isnt that your sock puppet robot? :P
-
Wow I just felt like I lost 45 seconds of my time..
At any rate somebody should know a VALID answer to this question.
Now boys go back to your rooms and come down at 6:00 for dinner and your group hug and therapy session with pointblank and chris
-
I'd like to think that anyone who owns a VW can post a question here H20 or air. I know He has pissed a lot of people off here and everywhere on the net but If you can help him then post if not just drop it.
-

yeah, someone over at DOV or BC Drivers. i got a rocco too and have lots of ??s, but i certainly don't post them here. let's face the facts, waterpumper \"restoration\" isn't the specialty around here.
-
I'll keep my head down in this one, but I will offer a possible vinyl repair solution. There is a company called FibreNew, and they \"might\" be able to fix a cracked dash, depending on how bad the dash is. Do a Google search for the contact info.
Al
-
yes, Fibrenew will do this type of restoration. While I worked at Hansig Automotive in the summer, he had come in a few times to repair dashboards from ICBC claims. I remember him fixing a GTI dashboard. anyways, he comes to you and has all his tools and equipment in his car. Nice guy. I can't remember his name
Look it up

Well, When he starts slamming peoples rides on here that does not sit well with me... :angry: Everyone has their own taste and budget, I respect everyone for that and I think everyone should respect each othe for that..If you dont I have a problem,,, :angry: If people on here are allowed to call your car shit or that you used shit parts then I dont want any part of this community.. [_[
I dont think you have read his post in members where he said Hooisers wheels were shit!
-

You know what you guys that whole behavior/bashing is atrocious. The question could of been asked for a squareback not a scirocco and it was a valid resto question. I would like to think that if I came on asking about a good body shop to take my truck to I wouldn't get flamed. You told me not to take your teasing too personally and then you turn the other cheek and flog Jakub? Take a chill pill.
Going back to my Switzerland Cave.
And wondering if thier can be peace and forgiving and forgetting on airspeed forums..

In both cases your reputations preceed you, as much as the fact that the question vas valid, people are entitled to there own opinions. If you burn your bridges from botrh sides, what makes you think any of the people on both sides of the water are going to reach out and give you a hand.
Guess its time for a name change...........
Kirin, you may need to seek a local A.A. chapter :P and you havent really trashed any one yet.

Kirin if you asked about a good body shop i would tell you, Now if in another thread you said 76's Bus was a cheap piece of shit and if he was into that sort of thing, I would tell you off, then if you asked for a bodyshop I would again tell you off... I know you and Jake have some sort of love thing going on and I am ok with that , Just dont think you can trash someones ride and think it is ok... [_[
I think now that you can drink alcohol, you are kinda drunk all the time... Check out the Member thread for the last time I will say this!!

So my final thoughts about this issue. Slamming somebody's car is not cool. I don't agree or think its alright to bash somebodys pride. But I think there are/were more constructive/less brutal ways of approaching this thread. And no I'm not in a constant drunken haze unless your talking about me being drunk on life.
Now as for my reputation I would love to hear what some people think of me/it. Seriously. And No I won't flame I just want to know.
Peace,
Kirin :P

You are still young there for your colored comments, ;)
But I like Ya :D

What do I think of you?? .....not much!

Thanks Pointblank for being forthright and honest. Hugs to you!(Maybe at christmas)
I stand guilty for all charges and then some. And of course as you all know I'm working on being eccentric but at the time being.... I'm just weird.
Happy I can put together complete sentances right now...

Kirin you must have been drinking, because your walking yourself right into a trap, you silly shit.
case in point, red snapper rofl.

You kinda remind me of myself when I was 12.

kirin, i've never met you and i dont know you, but from your posts on here and the things i've heard, you seem like a good guy with a positive attitude. keep it up. B)
just gotta watch the mouth (fingers) every once and awhile. we was all young once. ;)

Leave it to a redsnapper to give me the cold fish treatment :lol:
(Lame attempt at a bad Joke). Yes I know I'm walking into a trap and no I haven't been drinking since I have no money. And yes I'm the first to admit that I get a little ahead of myself while typing and I'm a bit highstrung. But it scares me though when I think you guys were young too. :P Now somebody go scrounge up some pics of Pointblank and James when they were young..
