Hey guys,
I've been reading here for a while now, letting my love for early bay come back in me...
I've had this rusty 72 for 4 or 5 years, sold it a couple of years ago:
Was pretty fun!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Eventually i sold it because i blew the engine and I was a little fed up with the bus, the rust and the mud...
So i spent 2 years without a bus, finished the resto of my bug this summer. A friend of mine went to cali in june, spotted a 70 deluxe, bought it and made it come back in europe. As soon as i saw the pics i knew i had to have it...
Just arrived in belgium 2 days ago... Got quite excited when i saw it for the first time!
Plans: Lower, old german sporty wheels, a 1915 engine that i have for it, microbed hinges (thanks dave frost), front over-riders (thanks tim RHR), etc etc... You get the picture![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
