Samba Ad: CB From The Philippines
ztnoo - November 20th, 2007 at 09:14 PM

This vehicle showed up last week in a Samba ad.
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=529728 
There were some pics offered with the ad, but they pose more questions in my mind than provide answers.
The ad claims it is an Australian CB......but I'm not so sure.
Number one, its a LHD. It my understanding CB's with KO #'s were all RHD.
Additionally the windscreen looks different with rounded top frame corners.
The dash is definitely not stock looking.
The bonnet (hood) area has been extensively modified.
The fenders certainly appear to be from a CB, but as you can see the headlights and taillights have been refabricated and recessed into the bodywork
Is this a CKD unit which was shipped to or assembled in the Philippines?
Anyone have any ideas about this vehicle?
Bill Moore, what do you think?

This looks like heavily modified Sakbayan.

Yep, not much 'Aussie' remaining in that one...

I think it has just about one of everything on it!

I'll call it "Burger":lol:

and the recessed spare wheel...
