Wow, awesome job!
Seems like a very solid bus you've started with. Like how you got paint everywhere. That rotisserie worked very well.

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.

Re: 23 samba replica
Thanks for the comments guys...The guys worked really hard the past 11 months and the bus has turned out stunningly. The colour combo makes a huge difference. Pierre this is the one I needed the skylight seals for.
All parts and accessories were top of the line. Klassic fab panels used for the sunroof conversion thanks to Jacques. Complete Sunroof and Samba trim manufactured in Cape Town. Sandblasting Paint, body, fab work, interior upholstery, comolete new engine build as well as sound fitment ( Blaupunkt Dortmund delux with mp3 convertor and Blaupunkt amplifier and hidden front and rear speakers) all done in house.
Fitting the skylight seals this week and then she is done
Many happy miles to the owner ( who wishes to be anonymous) in his new bus.
Muds..
