That splitty ute is forsale in brissy...

Do you know the story of the ute? Id be happy to read a bit more info on this if you have it byronbus.

Looks like a high roof single cab to me.

Brissy????
Never seen it before!
Where abouts?

I will chase it up and let you know, I looked at it recently, but wanted something a little more original

Thanks Byronbus, just curious, not really in a position to buy, so don't stress on it.

The combo was here in Tassie for the 2002 Targa Tas with the single as support vehicle. The guys campaigning the mini had another truck for the carrier but had problems with it and found the single on someones front lawn so bought it as a quick doer upper to transport the mini. They had problems on the way from Sydney to Melb and gearbox probs in Tassie which were fixed by Andrew Robinson in Hobart. Very lucky to get it home from what I hear, but gutsy project. volma1

I think he's owned the splitty for a number of years, I've known it for a while

Wouldn't a beetle fit up there?

Those bricks are tiny when you drive past them

I don't think a Beetle would fit up there. Early Kombi's and Beetles have a very similar wheelbase.

Squiz......

Didn't they advertise that a kombi is only 9 inches longer than a beetle? Then you'd end up with a fair bit hanging off the back.

I always wanted to get a fiat 500 (the bambino), cause I reckoned I could fit it in my kombi, and pull it out when I run out of fuel!

I would have bought the single cab if it came with a mini, but the guy wasnt up for it
