Hello to all DSK members, I have just returned from a raiding party in NSW with a captured Splitty .... just got home to sunny Brisbane with nothing falling off the poor ugly very yellowy bus !
Many thanks to a DSK member for selling it to me and showing me their collection
Ok so i get home with visions of doing a rat resto and spending the money on fast engine / rack & pinion steering etc etc when my wife & kids come rushing out of the house ... stop dead in their tracks, my youngest daughter 6yrs old mutters " oh it's a crummy one " and they all go back into the house ! so it looks like i will be spending my money on the welding and a spray job and then sourcing a 2nd hand engine etc........
Well at least i am a happy bunny with the yellow peril ..... Enjoy !

I am in Greenbank (4124) way down on the southside - not a lot of VW action around my way

Nice one mate, I'm sure your wife and kids will change their tune when they go for their first spin in it, and can't wipe the smiles of their faces!
