those are both great ! love the tall foglight stands on the van and that early Austrian DLX looks so well worn it really got character. That are Ford turn signals underneath the headlights. I'd love to see a used BD DLX like this in everydays traffic. As a matter of fact I'd love to see any T1 in today's traffic. they are just stuck in garages or museums anymore... _________________ Hotrods, Fords, Veedubs and Triumph Twins !

After all the "Black Pete" uproar, it's amazing such racist images still exist in Europe. Here in the U.S., Jim Crow memorabilia is collected as a symbol of a bygone era. _________________ We are striving for perfection, to make our cars run forever, if possible.
