not often u see an original basket weave interior in an early model
late 67s were the only early models with it

i looked at buying one
it even had a push button catch on the decklid like 68 on
dont know if that was original though

Boris was on show last weekend.
Quite well received, people who don't understand were very curious about roof rack.
Here's some pics, let me know what you think.

Darren

man borris looks mad, wondered where you sourced w/walls and are they inserts? thanks rob.


boristherat - April 8th, 2006 at 04:25 PM

Thanks Rob,
Whitewalls are inserts, got them from Classic Vee Dub in NSW.
Bought a few things from them, visor, w/walls, venetian etc. Priced well too.
Cheers
