Surprise gift from Julie's Aunt Margaret this morning.
The 1973 Kombi was owned for 40 years by the deceased husband of a very good friend of AM. She had to sell it but wanted it to go to a good home for sentimental reasons, so AM purchased it and presented it to us this morning - a huge surprise as we had no idea why she summoned us to her home this morning. The Kombi was recently painted (original sky blue colour) and new tyres fitted. Interior is still original and needs a tidy up. Being a commercial van (it was used to transport band equipment) it only has two front bucket seats and has no back seats so can only legally carry two people. Does anyone know (Cambuscuit?) if rear seat can be fitted (I presume so). It also needs new door cards and better seats - they're currently a tan colour, but I'd prefer black - will be done over time. Would also be a good project to turn into a camper.
Any advice or ideas regarding Kombis would be appreciated.
