Picked this up last year from vwbrookside be in Birmingham for £8000 on the roads was on the samba for a while so I got a nudge from my mate James waller go a view it ! So after a good look round I bought it . The patina is just right all og paint out side it's had new rear, fro the floor put in but everything is the original .. its went to a good friend of mine chez Williams from rapid rotant racing to get the 5 inch narrow beam ,dropped spindles fitted and the rear if the bus sorted with a straight Axle kit ..I also got some just Kampers slot mags which I later had sandblasted in the centres and left the outer rim still polished ...plus bought a full length roofrack and fitted a rock,roll bed from rusty Lee ....so pleased with this van it's got the look for me and has been a party bus from day one at its first show big bang this year :)
