Hey guys new to the vw scene, thought id say g'day have always wanted a splitty and found a 62 campertop in a guys backyard in glenbrook , purchased it fairly cheap considering its got an irs rear end and bay beam front etc already... pretty rusty sills etc etc,,i think it may have been a panel and converted cos the windows dont have the inner panel sections and not all the same size? kinda lucky i have a mate who is a welder/panelbeater i guess?.... will post sum pics later. cheers jamie. :wink:
