Looks like a lot of work there!
But it is already pre-slammed and in the rat look already, so you wont have too much to do 🙂
Seriously, what are your plans?

I paid $300 for it. I plan restore the body and interior to original and upgrade the suspension and motor - IRS rear etc. Frenzixs post about the cost of resto work has me a bit concerned! Though I am prepared to a lot of the rust work myself while leaving the structural stuff to those in the know.

Twoguns- the previous owner told me it sat around in the vw dealers yard until they went bust. Everything got auctioned off and nobody wanted the splitty! The guy I bought it off was using it for a parts storage shed for his bug stuff and did not want it anymore. What model is your next project?
Risky^VW- It is a 60 or 61 micro bus which means it was originally a 9 seater with full interior lining
Cheers Nicko

its amazing how they jsut keep popping up. must be that every one is keeping an eye out for 'em. look forward to seeing it come to life.
as for my new toy it is a 64/65 (awaiting for the chassis number to confirm) dual cab. can not wait.
