Re: New Members - Introduce yourself..
Ahoy !!
Me name is Shafeek Liberty (sliberty@aidc.co.za).
I own a 1957 VW bus (Split window ~ G-String) retro styled customed classic theme, dropped to the bone obviously...
9 coats of paint, 90% of her components re-chromed (wheels incl). new interior, kept original style camel vinyl, maroon piping... shaved the drip rail OFF... giving her a more classic hot rod flavor.
Pls advise where i cud post a pic of her!
Cheers,
Shafeek
