if you won a trophy at a vw show and someone bagged it out on aussieveedubbers you would be bagging them when you thought they were as quoted" enthusiastic" about vws of all styles as a lover of rats as you are "62 deluxe".
Im not personally really pissed of and its like us all sitting around having a beer and giving it back .
but i know alot of hard work, fun , rare parts and the not so rare ,went into the st george panel and enjoyment by many and bag it and ye shall be bagged

Point taken about the St George bus.
Personally I think the thing is *#%^$ awesome. Once again only my opinion.
I just feel the whole thing is getting a little personnal.
I for one have NEVER bagged anyones ride here or anywhere else.
Maybe as one of your members said "take the moral highground" and don't bite back. That is usually what the other person wants anyway.......

I see it as a bit of both ways.
While splitties are collectable, there is a difference between collectable & rare. At the same time, the number of splitties built that I have seen quoted in this thread doesn't mean much either. I have said this before on the forum, because the bay kombi was such a superior vehicle (which was the general idea), in the mid 70's you could not give away a split.
A hell of a lot ended up as razor blades. Those that didn't are tucked away &/or rotting away.

But that still doesn't equate to rare.
All you have to do is look, but get off the sealed roads to do it.
Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

Yeah, there's one (split) out front of my place, one around the corner on weekends (hey Tony, nice bus - should chat about your IRS), another project (?) one just up the road (steve), splitties are EVERYWHERE these days. Well, almost. :P Then theres some place with an early bay and other stuff amongst the trees, just around the other corner. :P

This thread sure is funny.:thumb What can I advertise? Ah: http://www.savethechildren.org/
