Just bought this Kombi to start restoring it for surf trips around the coast. Long time plan/dream of mine for ages, not sure how I convinced the wife but shes keen as well. Its long term so I'll keep the photos coming as I go along.

Can't wait to see this one progress. Love a good Kombi. Travelled around for a few years in a Transporter and slept, cooked, surfed in some amazing (and scary) places.
First thing you have to do is bend that coathanger into the shape of Australia.

great stuff. I had a orange one about 24 years a go. Plenty of trips up the coast, lots of good memories. Have thought about doing what you are doing maybe in 15 years time. Look forward to the updates.

Yes, when you have had a Kombi or two in your life, nothing is the same anymore.

Thanks Phil I live down the Pennisula way but also have a house down at Anglesea. I'll call in and see him next time I'm down, I know I'll need a little help.
