Hey 1500S
I know the white one well, I've seen it in person dozens of times before it went out to Young.
I remember where it came from, who owned it and what happened to the owner. From memory the car was very good with no rust or damage, it was also
complete but the interior was rough. If the owner you mentioned still has the car, I doubt he will part with it. but I imagine it has long since
vanished, along with some of the other rarities this guy owned.
When I first saw it in the early nineties, the guy who had been holding onto it for years, also had two genuine splitty ambulances which were
incredibly rare over here. But a lot of odd and rare VW stuff came out of this part of Oz. There is still a lot of good cars tucked away down
there....
Hope it was kept. Was offered it for $2000 back then but couldn't tie him down for a viewing. Ended up with a better deal from Eddy Lang at
Barnawartha.
