Latest news again. (Minus gremlins…)
WELL – even the Vintage Vans blog suffers the odd hiccup. My apologies, but here we are again. Now, back to the new arrival. Our 1951 cabriolet originally delivered to the federal frontier guard in Germany, it has since been on a bit of world tour before finding its way to Portugal.
OK you may find my words somewhat boring, so I’ll let the pictures take over. Let us know what you think. (Click on the images to enlarge.)

And here’s a video I took of her – and just like me she’s sometimes slow to get going on a cold morning…
Meanwhile, we are working hard on three split screen busses at the same time; here they are – you’ll recognise the pseudo Samba from before. The bodywork is done, now we’re finishing up the chassis.

And lastly this one, recently back from paint being put back together.
Putting it back together.
Hopefully these splits will be completed soon, after all, must find space for my own ’55 Oval and ’58 Single cab…
Take care, all at Vintage Vans.
