Classic old surf cars

Thread on the year well done AI G and all

Sorry but I noted others dropping the odd bike in.

but thats a new trumpy.

The old man rode a matchless 500 down to coast from brissy when he was a clubbie of southport.
I think it was a matchless

Pup would of seen it

The real one of this would probably be the rarest of old holdens?...
Called the Sandman Seawitch,only one made,the original has never been found,painted by a German spray painter who has since passed away.It's been copied many times!...

I took these photos this morning.

Bastard. I was looking forward to some coffee and food

Combis really were good surf wagons. That rear engine meant there was a fair bit of weight on the rear wheels and they were surprisingly good in soft stuff. 25 years ago we used to flog a mates Combi into Derrs. Anyone who remembers the dunes knows that was no mean feat. It was set up as a camper so once there we could make a day of it and were the cool kids having coffee and sangas in comfort and shade in between the waves.

That one looks well loved, Macaha. And, why I like to see all the old cars looking pristine again, I also like to see them looking like the get used for their intended purpose. I don't think anyone would drive a Combi in 2015 like my mates used to get driven. It was absolutely immaculate and got sold in 1996 for $6500.
