Cracking job Ian, and what memories seeing the Samba brought back for not only me, but my wife too.
In 1971, during my 'surfing period', we bought a V.W. exactly the same as this model, but ours was light blue and grey. We used to transport number one son in his carry cot on the rear shelf over the engine! (nice and warm)
Ash internal woodwork with velour upholstery, a steering column gear change, a hand brake that came out of the dash board, bench front seats, a pipe with a flap for a heater and a 6v. electric system!
Best of all, just four bolts and the engine was out and on the floor......another pot three cylinder to replace...again! The poor thing eventually bent in the middle (too much salt air)
Happy days and great fun.
