Photo of my old man in 1972 with his Dove Blue Kombi (56?). He drove this across country to visit his family in CT. All in the family.

This is amazing. It fits the theme of post #1 on this thread. Old pic(s) of split busses with a personal story attached. I love all the old pics on this thread, but it's the story that really makes the pictures special. _________________ EMPI Power Rules! |

borninabus -
Thanks... Next year, after this picture, above, my buddy and I painted the bus. Look familiar?
These are not the best pictures.
Peace
I repainted it the original color two years later, when I restored it.

Nice to see your history.
I think of old photos as a snapshot in time, and post them so they can be seen instead of being lost forever. If photos in this thread require an explanation, I'll stop searching for new ones to post.
