Hi again everyone!
I have bee out of touch for a while, and thought it a good idea to re-introduce myself!
My name is Gene, and i live in the Muizenberg/tokai area of the cape. I have a 1600 Niva, which has been good to me bar a head gasket leak about a year and a half ago. I use it everyday and go everywhere in it, it actually is one of the greatest little 4x4's around. I must say I have been struggling to get anyone to work on it as people see it and stand back and say " What type of car is that?" Anyway now that hotstuff is about I will be hooking up with him for some info, advice and maybe a couple of adventures!
So in the mean time keep enjoying the little monster with the big heart! Gene

Welcome back on board Gene !
A couple of years ago I lived in Stellenberg, and worked in Durbanville......... still have wonderful momories about that part of my life.......
I am sure between you, Mike, and Sakkie you might be able to start working on some adventures. I also hope to get some adventures going in the Durban Area, once my Lada is back on the road again.
Please be free to share any information regarding your Lada with us. Pics are obviously very welcome........
Regards
Danie

Thanks Danie!
Yes looking forward to getting with mike and other members. I will be posting some pics in the new week, also putting on a spare wheel carrier that I have been searching for for far too long!
I think just owning lada is a adventure in itself, and with all the mods that you can do , I will definitely be kept busy!
Good to be back ! Gene

Hi Gene - if possible, please send a pic of the sparewheel carrior as well.
You are 100% correct - owning a Lada is an adventure itself. Since I was a small boy, I took all my toys apart, and reassembled them again. I guess that's why I love my Lada to bits............
Regards
Danie
