Who built Bruce?
Hi gang, as some of you know, Bruce is heading over to WA from Melbourne. I cant figure out the original builder of my Kombi.
Ive posted up a few pics as clues to which company may of built it in 1976.
Bruce has a lump in the original rock and roll seat. Ive seen this in pics on one other original rock and roll bed.
Bruce has a full length slim line pop top. Slimmer than a normal Swagman and Sunliner top. The cargo area at the front is solid, unlike the slats on the Swagman ones ive seen. I found a thread from a guy who had a yellow Swagman with original decal on back, and also exactly the same pop top as mine. However, it did not mention interior fit out.
Bruce has a hand pump next to the sink, and a large tank under the body.
Not in the pics, as previous owner removed (but he is putting it back) is a Electrolux RM210 fridge behind the passenger seat.
Bruce has a wooden fit out. Not fibreglass like a regular Swagman.
Cheers,
