Hi Jolas, also got it, all the parts are there, also the 2 x loose brackets for fitting, you were referring to this one?

Got the step from Volkspares in Jet Park, and the parcel shelves from the "Monster Kombi" that was posted elsewhere on the forum, before it was sold....

Hey guys. I normally don't like posting here. I don't like bragging , but a friend and fellow forum member told me some of you might find it interesting. So here we go.
I was just given this book. It was probably handed out by VWSA as advertising and tell the SA history on the Kombi.

If anyone can tell me more about this book I would appreciate it.

That's a sweet little caravan! Congratulations!

I've been looking for a vintage lightweight, VW-sized caravan or camping trailer for a while.

Grip Light
I got this emergency light when I bought Oupa. It comes in a screw cap container. It clips onto your battery terminal and the bottom has a magnet which you can attach to the roof of your car.
