Sounds like an old farmer they try to use anything laying around like the trruck looking radiator no matter what they do they all have a ugly radiator fitted to the front. Maybe someone should write a book of what red and grey motors have been fitted too. Title: Re: vw kombi fitted with red 179...on der bay....yep for real!
