Holy crap, I just clicked on buynow by mistake, thank god it gives you an option to cancel!

Would be pretty sweet, love that it's a double cab.

$700 is pretty cheap buy now for four commer-doors.

Ha ha ha. Buy it! Build it!

I'm saving myself for a kombi single cab. Need to decide if I'm going to sell the beetle first.

Wife may to be too impressed. lol

I saw a Kombi single cab in the supermarket carpark a couple of weeks ago.
Owner thought there were only 4 in NZ?
I'm guessing they don't come up for sale often.

laspaz, Feb 22, 5:12pm
Lucky! Nah there are heaps more than that. They are neat though.

I'm thinking drop the commer body on the middle of an HQ ute chassis, do the customary chop and channel, then get those big truck wheels mounted up, then get the chassis down real low. Maybe a wee deck out the back. Awesome.

If you google for pictures '46 chev coe truck rat rod' this is the cab over version that might give you some ideas.

Ooppps, when I was young I bought one and saw a pic of one with about a metre cut out of the middle, it looked great.
"I can do that" so cut it into three, went away from home for awhile, came back to find Mum had it taken to the dump.
My sad story )o:

That rips my undies in a way I cannot put into words. I would be so keen on those 3 pieces of rubbish.

When we were teens my brother gave away a kombi because it wasn't worth anything. Probably pull 20k easy today.

Such is life I guess.

jmma, Feb 22, 5:43pm
Yes it ripped mine at the time,
As for your Bro, I guess hindsight is a great thing (o:

So you're a closet vw owner. Who would've thunk it? He he.

Might be better to try a Nissan Safari long wheel base chassis than an HQ ute chassis.
