Thanks Dave, Sorry I didn`t mention its a 1967 1200 model (112) it is probably the most basic of all models. The car has only had a couple of owners, that was a father and son in law I believe. Its in very clean condition, not having been restored and not modified at all. The car does not even have a fuel gauge. Its back to basics really and its still running 6 volts, but I may change that, but I am very dubious about changing anything, if it isn`t broken it doesn`t need fixing. It a nice Chincilla gray L70. I`ll post a picture or two when I work out how, I`ve tried a couple of times already, so I might abandon the idea in favour of a link to the pictures on hotmail one drive. I`ll check The Samba now cheers...
