Just thought a few of you might appriciate these photos....
This german guy in the hills in southern queensland has a split screen graveyard, this was his pride and joy...
I went there with the aim of buying a split from him, his crazy prices put me off ever buying a split, I will stick to early bays.... but what a cool yard.....

you might want to be a little carefull about what you say.... i'm sure i've seen some pictures of that outside shed posted on here before by the owner.
All I said was "theres the crazy semi naked German in the back ground "
It was crazy because he is more obsessed with VW's than me or anyone I have ever met, and seems to know everything about aircooled engines and well....he's semi naked in the photo :o
He did tell me how much the samba was worth.... something absurdly ridiculous... cant remember.

i had the same experience .....i live 20 mins from him...he`s got 30 splits and sheds full of parts, unfortunatly he also knows what they`re worth...was semi naked when i went too 😉...and the nice one isn`t his...he works on it though
hmm yeah i take it this is billy flocks hoard? i wouldnt say anything too bad about his mental health as his son is on the forum.

For the record.... I didnt really mean he was crazy, it was just a mad experience to go into the hills and come across all these splitties in one place together and find a guy who had worked on them for years and knew everything about them. He was actually very nice and incredibly helpful. I have spoken to him on the phone a few times since and he knows all there is to know about kombis! As you say Manx_xtc, a bit of a Legend.....
