Just after an idea of how many on here have a split kombi and when will it be on the road. Also if you could post a pic it would be great. Cheers Dave

The single cab in my avatar is now at home and in a million pieces. I had a thread going in members rides but it disappeared in the forum crash. I'm not sure how long it will take to finish, I've been at it for six months already and I've hardly made a dent in it, or removed any dents more to the point.

i used to have a sweet 67 cream and beige splitty with wooden panel interior, now i have a 73 beat up bay, not quite rat yet🙂. i really miss my splitty, and regret selling her everyday...but the bay is so much better to drive.

if youve seen a splitty with ulu172 plates that gets around, drop me a line

You've got a production line in your living room, Herbie. Driveway looks like a stock yard for export.

Should have mine panted within the next two months. As for being on the road, only time and money will tell.....

PS - anyone know what this tent would be worth. Made from good quality canvas. I think its from the mid sixties or early seventies...????

Given its attachment to a hippy bus, and its age, it may be full of hashish residue with a street value worth more than the tent itself, you could roll it up and smoke the tent!!!😀😀😀😀

Hey byronbus, its a good thing u have drip trays under the front of those things. I've heard these vws leak heaps!!!
DSK means Da Sik Kombis!!
Surely there are heaps more than this?
I wish I had a split but I guess my original, low mileage, 2 owner, almost utouched early bay window deluxe will do me just fine!!
