A rare South African Volkswagen with loads of character.
Split Window Pickups are seldom seen, and finding one built for the South African market makes this an even more interesting piece of Volkswagen history.
This is an honest example with enormous potential. The paintwork is tired and shows some rust, but underneath is a mechanically excellent vehicle that has been sorted by the team at Generation Old School.
She starts easily, runs exceptionally well, and is ready to be enjoyed immediately.
The interior remains original with the simple, minimalist design these workhorses were known for, while the dropsides remain intact—a feature that’s becoming increasingly difficult to find.
Highlights include:
* Rare South African Split Window Pickup
* Mechanicals rebuilt and sorted by Generation Old School
* Starts and runs very well
* Original minimalist interior
* Original dropsides intact
* Paperwork in order
* Get in and go
This isn’t a concours restoration.
It’s an honest, usable classic with plenty of charm and huge potential for the next owner to take to the next level.
The perfect beach house cruiser, promotional vehicle, or weekend classic that will draw a crowd wherever it goes.

★★★★★ - A True Sanctuary for Classic Car Enthusiasts
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Wat Swaai Jy and was absolutely blown away. This isn't just a dealership; it's a museum where every car tells a story. From impeccably restored muscle cars to perfectly preserved European grand tourers, their inventory is diverse and of the highest quality.
What truly sets them apart is the expertise and genuine passion of the staff, not only about the mechanics and history of the vehicles but also about the provenance and market value. There was zero pressure—just honest, excited discussion about classic cars.
If you're serious about finding a rare, high-quality classic, or just want to spend an afternoon admiring automotive history, Wat Swaai Jy is the definitive place to go. A truly world-class operation.
