So that means you will now be known as 'Karmann_Kid'? ;)


kombi_kid - August 10th, 2004 at 10:46 AM

ahahahahahahaa its my old mans but yer it will be mine one day :P found this one through type82e (marcel) it was owned by a UNI teacher in lismore for the past 20 years or so with the intentions of restoring it for his daughter and he got to the stage where it is know and left it under a tarp for the rest of the time!!!
its a solid looking car so far just needs a minor nose job, little work in the outter sills the floor pan looks rock solid it is complete except for bonnet badge,boot script,badge that goes on the d/s front guard and chrome strips down each side (thats what we have found out so far)
cheers
