Looks nice, let's see the rest of it.
 
I have been working at Germany and found this 1968 T&C pretty close to Krefeld. It was located in the Netherlands and imported by member 68-300. Thanks Alex sending me plenty of goods pics and info!

I visited current owner last week and car is now waiting for transport to Finland. At least I have paid it..

Nice car and in really good condition. Can't wait next summer!
