Mixed bag in the Shed
« on: July 10, 2012, 23:57:37 »
I said I was going to fill the shed with a mixed bag of cars.  Here is another one I have purchased and pick up on Saturday from the southern isle of Tasmania and bring back on the ferry.

1974 VW Kombi Camper auto to go with the 230sl and the Jag XKE.

My recently sold Pagoda was called Kermit and in respect to it, the person that sold it was called Wayne so we have nicknamed it 'Wayne' at the moment.  Maybe it should be called the "bread tin"

Has been restored and fitted out in leather inside. 

Tail light lenses for a Kombi $10 Tail Light complete $45.  Lens for a Pagoda $300? Taillight complete $700  Go figure that one. MB vs VW

Veerrry nice. Wife has a hankering for one - although she really wants an Airstream...

Whack a 3litre SC engine in the back end and you'll actually get somewhere ;)
