Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.

Paul, have you checked the chassis number to see if it's a 65 or 64? At the time, some changes were made individually during the production year. Yours have the later door locks (introduced a few months into 64 production), and the earlier heater outlets if i remember correctly. I thought it could have been late 64. If chassis number has 7 digits starting something like 13***** then it's 64. If 9 digits starting like 215****** it's 65.

I don't have a TV, but I think you might be referring to a Samba which is almost the same colour as my bus ?
