Aircooled VW South Africa

Think this is one of Paul's kombis...? Spotted these pictures on News 24.

Shame poor guy.Nice Kombi.

Thanks Dawie, yes my '65 bus, she also emailed me the same pics today

Nice stuff Paul.. Very cool.

Paul, have you checked the chassis number to see if it's a 65 or 64? At the time, some changes were made individually during the production year. Yours have the later door locks (introduced a few months into 64 production), and the earlier heater outlets if i remember correctly. I thought it could have been late 64. If chassis number has 7 digits starting something like 13***** then it's 64. If 9 digits starting like 215****** it's 65.

Thanks Dawie, yes 7 digits,

Is this the same bus in the new Kombi advert as well?

I don't have a TV, but I think you might be referring to a Samba which is almost the same colour as my bus ?
