Here are some more of my arty B&W shots. I took these at my mechanics, Indian Automotive (Kingswood, NSW). They are VW specialists, and as you can see by the pics, Kimm (the owner) loves his Type 2s (Kombis). His daily driver is either a late model ‘bus’ on 22’’ bling wheels or a ’72 crewcab type 2, matt black with a supercharged V6 and on its guts – very fast! :) If you want to know more about em, check em out at http://www.kruizinwagon.com.au

thanks :) Looking forward to getting the respsonse from the guy who owns it...

My 65 bus...


Here it is in San Miguel in north north baja. I remember on this trip, my friend had no money and brought only a loaf of bread and peanut butter and jelly. The night we got there, he passed out in the van and used his bread as a pillow. Least the surf was good...Originally, it had an emblem that got stolen. I got another emblem from a bus a friend found abandoned in a field, way out in the sticks in bonsall. It was in perfect shape so I threaded and bolted it in to prevent another theft. I didn't believe him when he told me about it, but sure enough it was there. I got a whole bunch of other parts off of it too. The emblem was selling for about $85US at the time.

Custom red velvet tuck and roll interior-floor to ceiling.

I still have it, but the paint doesn't look as good anymore...It's in storage in Zaya's back yard. Someday it will be painted again. Someday...
A picture of it was used on an album cover too

My attempt at Hockneyesque Cubism
I never knew how to fix a car until I got a VW. Now I can tell what's wrong with a VW by the way someone describes the problem.
I love VWs
Broken Bus Buzzy Out!
