Old Grey split oval beetle - Bris?
Parked outside my shop in Kenmore is an old charcoal grey split oval beetle, its a solid, chalky old dark grey, with the wheels and hubbies painted
the same colour, a bike rack, a 'HALT' brake light just below the window, front spotties, both the headlights and spotties have black surrounds and
black mesh covers, its got a sunvisor and a rack, and some other old looking accessories and stuff, it look like its in pretty decent condition for an
oldie.....
anyone on here seen it before, anyone on here own it.....see it once a week usually in the carpark here, sometimes a few days a week driving around
morning or arvo. Just curious about it!?!?!?
Edit: just took some crappy phone pics, will see how they are when I get home tonight and chuck them up for you all to see if they are ok!

It's been converted, the rear windows are not pointy enough at the ends and many other give aways, but it's still cool as and would be even cooler
lower with nice rims.
