's up?

Is it silver or gold in colour?

Bottom looks silver, but the top looks goldish, to me? :)

I'll take it, please. :)

Thanks, N.

Mid '60s ( :?: ) :)

The '66 could do with a better one...well, a new wheel actually, but it's a start. :D

Where in Pretoria are you?

Perhaps you can pass it on to Pine for me. :) I don't usually find myself in that part of the world, but see Pine from time to time. :)

I also work with two guys in Pretoria, so perhaps they can help, depending on where all of you are. *lol*

...didn't the '70s Wolfsburg logo change slightly in the '70s, Pine?

I don't have a spare Haynes unfortunately. :|

Eish...now I'm showing my complete lack of knowledge about Pretoria.

I'm not sure where Pine stays...Pine?

My mates at work stay in the Eldoraigne area :?:

Anywhere near to you?

Thanks, N.

Sweet.

If you don't mind hanging on to it for a while, I'd really appreciate it. I'm housesitting waaay on the other side of the world for the next 2/3 weeks, so I'm out for that period. :|

I know Didi has to sort out a plan to get a Pitman arm to me, so when he gets hold of me, we'll try and tie it altogether. :)

Cheers, N.
