Actually you can't load your pics directly from Flickr - (I did a 'print screen' and pasted the pics in Paint to mess around a bit with you :wink: ) - but you can upload them here in your post (right at the bottom) or upload them on http://www.thesamba.com and paste the link in your thread

This is my 1962 baby and she is my daily drive for in Town only. A year and a half of pleasurable driving! Bought her this way, just had the roofrack, hidden speakers, black plates and GT exhaust fitted so far.

Plans for the future is a 1776 twin carb motor, red rims ( widened at the rear ) with chrome beauty lips and white wall inserts and adjustable suspension front and rear.

Then I shall move onto the next VW. Splitbus, Oval Bug, Notchback or Ghia - whatever comes by at the best deal first! But hopefully all in the future under one roof!
