A young girls dream came true yesterday, she wanted a kombi as her wedding car.

Kombis have come a long way from humble beginnings, when they can now be up there with the Rolls's and stretched limos etc.

It must be the most photographed splitty (apart from Daves -57kombi of course) after yesterday.

I had a ball too, it was a privelage for me, thankyou!!!!

What better excuse to post a few photos on AVD

Flowers $30
Suit $300

everyone loved the bus, heard so many kombi stories, its amazing how they tir up emotions and memories. All the more reason to save as many of them from extinction.

The bride was over the moon, so happy. I think she may talk the groom into buying one, if he knows whats good for him haha
She wanted it as a backdrop for most of the photos, I can't tell you how pleased I am that my bus has contributed to such a great day

New sideline Roy.

I got another later in the year.
Its great to see the looks on not only the bride and groom but all the others in the wedding, they all love the splits and it makes a change from the old white Jags.
When I did mine in November, we went past 2 other wedding parties and they both started clapping and waving, really made the brides day.

I wont post any pics.

Promised not to for at least a week.

Cheers
Dave

Hey where was you, why didnt you jump out and say hello.
I was trying to find a parking space, ended up going down to Kirra for a drive and then back to Burleigh to watch a bit of fire dancing.

Next time say hello !!!

I was thinking of cutting one of those round windows in the side, retrimming with red and gold velour with tassles and some chandeliers in the back.
Oh and one of those mirrored globes !!!
