As well as my Towd we have also had this Baja Kombi since 2006 and yes like the Tow'dster it currently is under a major restoration Baja Kombi's were quite popular here back in the late 80's / early 90's and as such ours was lifted by the man that did most of them and made a business out of it at th...

Tell Todd to take a teaspoon of concrete in the morning and harden up

Pull it apart , put it together , sleep , and repeat Yes it's back together again at the moment as Buggy Brad has been back over here in Oz among other things wiring a lot of the car for me Dash is pretty well done although i think i'll drop the second skin around the speedhut guages , it was just a...

Great story Calvin and as you say it would be easy to build two different cars to suit the racing and beach , but where would the challenge be in that . That and twice as much money , just tune in the suspension properly and you'll have a great all round car mate . the only thing that concerns me is...

I hope the transport company is paying up for all this , as it was obviosly in there care at the time of the incident
