"Miss purdey" wife's sc ute
Well works started a few months ago on the new split edition to the family. My wife's 40th surprise present and boy was she surprised
Plan is keeping it ratty out side with the top section old white and new interior. She's named after the classic Jerry Lewis film The nutty professor's character "Miss Purdey" if you haven't seen it download it now!!
Rust you say? yes indeed the whole back pretty much needs rebuilding but the cab it not bad.
Let the fun begin

Gonna be great to follow another 'Niko' build..... and from the looks of that SC from the cab back, a build it will be!
My Dad's Kombi circa 1967 at Taronga Zoo. I'm the light weight with the skinny legs, my older brother is doing the roof jump!
