Hi Guys... I would like to break the news that I am a new owner of a 1959 semaphore Samba, I had the opportunity of making my dream come true... I would like to thank Eugene for making it possible, I believe we share the same passion, & I know we will become even better friends in the future...

Bienie, Koos & not forgetting my better half Wilene.... Thanks for the help & support thus far and the hours we are going to put in making my dream take shape...

Here are some photos of the trip to go fetch my baby...

Congratulations! I actually drove past you on Sunday on the N1. It was between Richmond and Hanover, at the spot where the truck jack-knived.

You can't hide a SAMBA.

Enjoy her - hope we can meet soon

Your fellow Samba owner
