Factory made isn't it? From Brazil
something like only 12 made or there abouts. yes is a parts bin fleetliner from south where ever. made in mid 70's
I want one!
....I drove one like this here on the Gold Coast a couple of years ago - It belonged to a friend of mine. He believed that it had been imported from
Papua New Guinea as it had an ultra low compression motor fitted so that it could run on the very poor quality fuels/Kero that were all that was
available in the highlands. He replaced the motor with a standard 1600 TP.
It was a mix of parts - Bay front (foward of the B pillars) and late '50's rear, but with late '60s (68 ish) running gear. Unfortunatly the
steering box was almost knackered, so there was a heap of slack in the steering which made dodging around the other Knobs on the Gold Coast roads an
interesting task.
I believe he sold it to someone in Sydney soon after I drove it - haven't seen it since.
It was an '86 model...I think thats what he said...

These were made in Brazil, right through the 80's, they were also exported to new Zealand, there are quiet a few over there, and rust out like no
other Kombi I have seen.
They are King and link front end, wide 5 drums, IRS rear end, with forks and cradle like a splitty, and the weirdest IRS gearbox you will ever see.
The fleetline Kombis were made in South Africa and were still split screens right through to the mid '70's, they were avaliable and sold along side
the bay Kombis as a cheeper unit.
isnt it like the one racq did up for there free to go promotion?/?
