Hi,
after long negotiations with Lenny we managed to buy the last know Split Rometsch coupe for our collection. Now our rometsch collection is complett and today we got the car and we could make pics from the 2 split rometsch.
This is the first time since the 50 ths that a split coupe and a cabrio stand together.
Have fun with the pics.

That car is going to take some real skill and a lot of money to get it close to correct. Good luck you guys..............If anyone is up to the task, you are. _________________ "What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away." Dobee, Dobee, Do |

I spent last winter getting some one year parts for my 67 T1. I can't imagine trying to get parts for this car besides fabrication. Good luck with your collection and I am glad your sharing your tales with us here at Samba. _________________ 1967 Type1 Zenith Blue |
