My newest VW... 64 Splitty

Some of you might have seen me banging on about bringing a splitty in from the UK, taking advantage of the strong Aussie $ and all. Well I decided to look a little closer to home - New Zealand! Our $ is super strong and let me tell you, there are bargains to be had!

I've brought a car in before from New Zealand so have already got a company lined up. Just need to ensure I get the import permit now!

Here she is!

Beauty.

Ever been to Nelson? Nice spot if you like kayaking.

Fookin lurvely. Hope you get it over ok

In 1964 until the 70's it was used as an armoured security van for transporting payroll etc. Thus the closed in rear. I believe it used to have steel plating on the inside as well.

The roof still says Crown Security although I suspect it's not the original paintwork...
