The Kombar
hey all,
heres a couple of pics of my kombi - the Kombar (with a couple of"befores")
it has been a work in progress for about 7 months.
as you can see most of the exterior work is finished (thanks to my cousin)
now i'm getting stuck into the interior. i'm decking it out to be used as some sort of party hire or something like that. i have to build the long
bar for the side and one to fold out the back (which i've started outof fibre glass a bit like surfoard style construction to keep the weight down),
and then put lights, speakers etc into the roof
anyway - here it is for now

thanks guys
i definitely want to get better wheels and someother bits and pieces but i have to replenish the bank account 1st!
i would definitely like to run it as a bar myself but liquor licences/insurances etc etc would be a killer- so i plan to hire out dry and party people
supply the grog!
i was going to get personalised KOMBAR plates but TAP is pretty good and i'mtold 618 means forever prosperous in chinese!
ps i'm a girl (standing inside the bus with the short blonde hair)
hehe hehe
all is good

make a trailer from the rear end of a bug and you will be set.

some people are like slinky's
they have no useful purpose
but they are fun to watch
when you push them down the stairs

It is a sweet idea. You should bring it to VW shows as well. Stock it with some juices or something, everyone would buy stuff. Very cool!

liquor licensing would be expensive, but certainly worth it if you live in an area with a high population of tourists/backpackers. i reckon itd be
perfect at the snow fields.
