Thanks KruizinKombi,
No it's just a roof rack with a full length board. Keeps some heat out as well as a high vantage point.
The plan is to also make an awning to come from each side!

your Kombi is absolutely beeudiful hope my wife never sees it or I will have to be doing a respray!:thumb

😀😀😀😀
Thanks Mate!!
You have a nice collection also (with the Humber!!)
It was a painfull decision to use it on the beach, and he's done plenty of dirt miles since the restore, but at the end of the day they were made as a work vehicle and Andy's doing plenty of work for me!!
Don't know if I'll ever use it as hard as Kruzin kombi though :o

yep vehicles were made for a purpose & I can only afford to own them if they can fulfill their intended function The Humber is 40 years old now & does a minimum 450ks a week, the Kombi only does 250ks a week, each Jan for the last 5 years the Humber has done about 6000ks which includes the mandatory Gold Coast trip,
WHEN used as intended you have more FUN, from what pictures I have seen, Kruizin Kombi has LOTS of fun, & Amazer has LOTS of fun, taking used as intended even a step further🙂

Here's Andys dash with gauges.
Note the deluxe steering wheel and trip meter speedo (not that you can see it)!!
I have 3 gauges in the dash, CHT, Oil pressure and vacuum.
Beheath the dash RHS is RPM, volts and Tacho.

Now for a real clock!!!!!! :thumb

It looks awesome!!! :thumb:thumb:thumb
You obviously think along the same lines I do. I have a fat steering wheel lined up, and I'd be interested in CHT and Oil gauges for my own peace of mind. I have a type three tacho mounted where your clock is (it fits amazingly well!!) and I intend to start looking for a trip speedo when the finances allow.
I've got a full-length roofrack, to which I want to fit a piece of marine ply as a decking, with a pull out awning on one side (over the door) and the tube for my windsurfer mast on the other side.
Maybe I better paint it to match yours!!! 😀😀😀

Cool dash Andy!
I have to get two more to match you!
I was lucky enough to have had a original clock in it when I bought it!
Who did you score the under dash tray from, is it one of Alec's from Klub VW, I have been promising myself one for age's, never seem to get one though!

Robo, the tray came from Hardings, not sure who makes them though. Not sure how they are supposed to be fitted so I have made up brackets to hold it in place (pretty dodgy ones though). I didn't want to just screw it to the panel work I assume other people do.
Kruizin, there's only on Andy. Besides I'm sure you have better plans for your work horse. How common are the trip meter speedo's?

I'm interested in an under dash tray also. May be a good group buy😀
Andy ·
Don't remember exactly. I only buy from them in big lumps to get a discount.
I do remember seeing them at the swap meets ~$80mark :thumb

Pre '73 dash???
KruizinKombi ·
New looks better in a late bay :thumb
I've got the later grey km speedo, but I'm swapping it over to black to match the type 3 tacho. 😀

So I'll have to get an old Deluxe Kombi to go with the Dash??
Will have to make room for another project 😀

KruizinKombi ·
That sounds like an excellent idea!! Are you going to paint it in colours to match the current kombi? 😀
Andy ·
If I ever get that far Col (very unlikely) I will stick with what it left the factory with, as I did with Andy.
I procrastinate too much to decide on a colour, so the fatory numbers makes it easy 😀

Andy is a '77 deluxe and comes from the factory without the bulkheads behind the seats.
You can see this in the pic. It also shows the base the swivel bolts to.
The swivels I used come from KAB seating in Rocklea
http://www.kabseating.com.au/online/profile/kab.asp
The seat then mounts with rails to the top of the swivel itself. Sorry I don’t have any pics of the assembly.
If you want to do this I recommend getting info of the swivel base you plan to use, the seats you will use, a details of how it all is to be mounted into the body. Take this along to a place that can give you a mod plate for the changes. It’s best to do this FIRST before you do all the hard work and find out it can’t be approved. I did all this and got a blue plate no worries.
About the only down side to them, is my seats sit a good inch or more higher than the standard seats, and it obviously isn’t original any more.
Cheers,
Andy
