Dont know alot about them, but it does look cool;) and at a fraction of the price of a split samba:)

They were used for airports/or tours I believe, not many of them made!

That's from my memory who knows it could be true?

Brazilian bus, CKD (complete knocked down) kits produced in South Africa i believe, then shipped to Brazil, where they were put together, obviously SA had lots of spare Split back ends, but no fronts, so they used the Bay fronts which were plentiful as they were the current model.
Only produced for 2 years i think, 76-77, so there wont be many about.

I like its quirkyness. Even the interiour is a hybrid mix of Devon Moonraker and Westfalia Berlin bits.

Thats pretty cool and seems very cheap.

I particularly like this top of the range Westie version, which I believe was extremely rare!
