well, the first 2 are my fathers kombi, just because they where there, and the bottom left is the view from your deck in 1976. betcha thought you where the first with a kombi there? and bottom right is my mother in your kitchen, again, 1976, or there abouts. (i guess its more her kitchen.. she was there first, dems da rulesz!

ha ha nice one mike.sure was, of to blues fest...my bus has seen more of northern nsw than it has of the coast

and Nick fill the folks in hey, its pritty incerdibale stuff

i first started talking to nick when he was interested in my split i had for sale, turned out we are both young painters and had vws in common so have keept in touch.....i offered my spare room for him and his gfriend to stay in when they came down for madigrass...

anyway seems when he told his mum were he stayed she new my street name....and the unit..cause it turns out she lived her in the 70's and the spare room he stayed in, it was his mums....it still seems pritty unreal, it was only earlyer that day i was saying how its funny to always see the same people around when there is so many units/houses in my local area not to mention the whole over crowded coast

and nick you owe me a old stinky throw rug

you criminal

my third speedo cable is broken, as well as my needle on my cluster, anyone have any for sale or can they be fixed???

haha yeah. she and her friend lived in that same unit in the 70s. funny stuff

i dono know much about anything, but i would think it would be able to be fixed, it would just take a fair bit of fucking around... but like i say, i dono much about anything

ill make another order from cip soon, and ill get you 2 speedo cables?
