New addition to stable
volma1 - May 9th, 2003 at 03:26 PM

Yesterday I found another rarity in the local area(bush area), and now have it at home. The owner, after little thought, sold me his 67 split window dual cab for a bargain price that I am too embarassed to mention. he said that it had been sitting since 1985 after rebuilding the motor then had a brake failure scared himself and didn't drive it again. Has rust only in the sills and all seats are intact. Will post pics next week.volma1

Fish you wanna find rare and at a good price - Go to Brazil my friend ;)

Congrats Volma. I hope to be a guest at your place one year. The minister of leisure and travel and I were just discussing holidays and both though Tasmania would be nice. No agreement on taking the Dog-O-War though. Think well be there in a Forester if that happens.

Kepe a teabag spare just in case.

A little history on the crewcab. It was originally from South Aussie and spent most of it's life in Coober Pedy and still has red dust inside the sills. Anyone recall one there 20+ years back.volma1


volma1 - May 11th, 2003 at 10:26 PM

Rhys, only costs $105 each way in deck chair and car travels free most of year (45 weeks). If car unreg'd then get $36 permit to drive onto boat then trailer from Melbourne. Supposed to be roadworthy--- loose term!!volma1

volma1 - May 13th, 2003 at 04:03 PM

Used to be a hairy critter but the karcher took care of that. Fell sorry for all of the wildlife that lived in the growth(free at last, I'm free at last) but probably better off.volma1


pyr0 - May 13th, 2003 at 06:45 PM

sweet buy man


Bizarre - May 13th, 2003 at 07:30 PM

Volma - before i get REALLY upset.
How complete is this?
Like do you have to rewire it?
Are all the lever things there?

That lots too sweet to be real!

Reckon you shopd have left the hair on there though!


72TWINCAB - May 14th, 2003 at 11:36 AM

THATS TOPS! I RECKON YOU JUST GOT THE BEST BUY OF THE YEAR:thumb CONGRATS:D


rachael brown - May 14th, 2003 at 05:48 PM

I was wondering if you can help me seeing that you are in tassie. my kombie is from tassie (actually it might be you that found it for me..... well for my friend) anyway, its registered in tassie and i need to change the address on the rego cos the address has changed. Im in melbourne and need to change the address but the number on the rego sticker is for tasmania only. Do you know a direct local number for the car regos? ive looked it up on the internet too, but cant change it there either!


volma1 - May 14th, 2003 at 09:55 PM

No the crewcab is complete as I found it, nothing missing but has a broken tail light and front indicator lense also broken. All wiring intact. Am going to attempt to start it this weekend and give the results considering it hasn't run since 1985. Rach yes that is the green kombi that Elly used to own and sold to you via Jason. Email me and I will help you out with your rego problems. volma1
