The red bug belongs to 4agedub and goes like it looks ----sweetl
The black bus was parked at the garages but looking at I think Bugger was there already.

Geez. Not another one.

At one time I thought I were quite exclusive with my 181.

Now Im starting to think that in ZA there are more Kubels on the road the Toyotas.

Unfortunately no photo's but saw 2 bay panelvans today in the Ferndale/Randburg area. First one was blue and yellow with the number for a handyman on the back. The second was red with an old coca-cola logo just visible on the side.
