My ride

Tuesday 25th

This is my 1968 Volkswagen Kombi t2 (bay window) that is a USA spec model, meaning it is left hand drive and was sent to California in 1968 brand new where it stayed until 1980 when it was imported to NZ.

It has been fitted out with a Westfalia camper conversion with pop top roof 

it has a single port 1600cc with a 4 sod manual gearbox and cruises along nicely at 55mph

It has also been lowered in the front and rear by roughly 2inches

 

She is a pleasure to drive and gets many people talking and smiling when they see her either driving or parked up,a great conversation piece and she has the nickname "Betty" with the personalised plate MLKBTL (milk bottle) due to her couloiring (L-87 pearl white)

 

We look forward to seeing everyone on the drive and will be excited to see all the classic cars out and about for a great cause!

 

Cheers,

Jason 

 

Getting behind the wheel for The Distinguished Gentleman's Drive

Tuesday 25th On Sunday, September 24th 2023, I'll be taking part in The Distinguished Gentleman's Drive. Together with thousands of classic car enthusiasts around the world, I will be raising funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health for the charity, Movember.

Before the dapper day, I'll be looking to raise as much as possible for the cause, to help men around the world live happier and healthier lives. With men's chances of developing prostate cancer later in life increasing, and one man dying every minute by suicide, we must do all we can to prevent more men from suffering.

This is something that affects us all and together, we can make a change. Please give what you can.
