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

That looks to be in good condition. Yes I know its all in pieces but cannot see any rust.

WOW!!!
I didn't see the pics of the bumper earlier. That front bumper is definitely from the samba. He's swapping samba bumoers for a beetle starter??? WTF?
Does he not think the samba is worth rebuilding?
Anyway, another one comes to light ... shows they are still out there.

I found this model kit of the Kubelwagen, the cool thing about it is that it is a 1:24 scale version, never before had I seen one in this scale only smaller and one that was like a 1:12 or 1:16 scale and that is a bit large..
I build kits all in 1:24 & 1:25 scale, so this to me is an amazing find!
Just keep on BUGGIN'

St Christopher bumper badge

St Christopher is the patron saint of travellers.

Picked up this little baby in a small Eastern Cape town full of hidden treasures yesterday.
Came with papers, licence etc.
