That photo taken at Morriset shows a few changes to cars over the years.Some on here might recognize what they are driving now but I doubt it.
Looks good may see you on the weekend.

what a great day at Old Bar... and the trip up with the other kombi's was well worth the drive from taree to sydney to meet them.
a lot of people saw George at OldBar and i heard a couple of rumours... these really annoyed me, so i wanna clarify my ride.
the legend behind George is Mike at Custom Bugs and Buses. this man saved my pride and joy and renewed my VW experience, and i have nothing but praise for this man (as a lot of you know). All the mechanical is CBB inspired and as a lot know, and a few saw on the weekend, the ol' splitty gets along pretty nice. So despite what some have said and others heard, Mike is the man and i am fortunate to drive his work daily.
some of Mikes work is the narrowed ball joint beam, four wheel discs conversion, straight axle conversion rear end, 1776 ported/polished twin carb engine. infact all the bits that make it go hard and stop harder. jsut unfortunate that i am not close enough to allow him to keep it all at its finest.
nuf said. 👍
