21 window VW Bus's (Kombi's) here in the USA start at $10,000 USD (R 120,000) and; that's for a ratty one that needs major work.

Toyota minitruck diffs are quite strong.

That sounds very much like the State of California with their 'non-op' scam. Meaning if a previous owner of a vehicle didn't update the registration and didn't get a 'non operational permit', any subsequent registered owner will have to pay the backlog reg fees.

I have no idea in what shape the 6 is in so it might be best to get replacement everything. That I can understand because unlike here in the USA; 23...

C30: will you keep it carb'd or go fuel injection? Too; manual or AT? Why all the questions is that a TBI conversion along with a 4L80 4 spd AT would make for a powerful truck that might return reasonable fuel economy.

Don't let the Aussies see 'em since that model for some strange reason wasn't offered over there despite it being RHD, eliminating the need for a mirror image conversion on a USA import back when new.
