1954 VW Transporter Type 2 (T1) - YAS 807

Described as being 'blue' on the DVLA records, this rusting, ratty-lookin' splitty was only registered here in October 2003, but having been built in 1954 it's one of the oldest examples I've come across.

Never sure with these if the rust is real or artistically crafted in some way, but it does look the part that's for sure and I'm glad Val that you like the shot! :)

Great shot of this oldie! Personally, I don't think the "rat rod" style works for this bus.

Oh I don't know Diane, I think it has a kind of apocalyptic charm to it! ;)

Well, that's true. Lol! By the way, I'm very impressed by your number of keywords!

autofantasia replied to Diane Putnam:

As sad as it may sound I actually took some time ago to create a document that has a set group of keywords for various types of vehicles e.g. Campervans.

So I just copy and paste the majority of them into ipernity and so only have to actually type in the few that relate to that vehicle specifically e.g. the model, year etc. ;)
