Lindor#2

Post by dixtoy »

I was always on the lookout for an unmolested beetle that I could afford, went to buy my wife a new dishwasher today and came home with Lindor's younger sister. She has her nicks and scratches to show that she lived, but except for the radio she is still original even the heater is still connected. ImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

For the near future she will stay as is, will just do a good service and a spit and polish. I'm busy building a beach buggy and must still do the Oval, wife wants some work done on Lindor, so this one will have to wait in line for a bit

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