Hey guys,firstly thanks for a great forum.Its very nice to see so many people loving our famous Horizontal opposed monsters :D I recently decided to start my own rebuild,The Porsche Special.So this forum will help me a lot seeing that I've mostly been building planes so this would be new although the engines are basically the same.Always had my buggy with a 1600 Twin port and wanted to make it special.So again thanks guys

Welcome to all the new members.

Wimpie, ek sien jy is van Vryheid. (Noord Natal). Of noem mens die area nou deesdae Kwa-KZN of iets.

Die Vryheid hoërskool het n paar liggrys kombis gehad rondom middel 60's. Hulle het destyds plaas-kinders daarmee aangery skool toe en terug. Dis later vervang met Mercedes- busse. (Seker lank voor jou tyd).

Hier is een van daardie kombi's:

Oorspronklik was die agterkant met geel en swart zebra-strepe geverf. Hierdie foto is nadat die agterkant weer terug na liggrys geverf is.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).
