Hi Steve. Actually mine is registered as a 66 if I remember correctly. It does indeed have the mahogany interior. I have some rot from a leaky skylight that is going to necessitate some floor repair. I will definitely check out your thread. This site is priceless. The information and nice people help keep these things alive! I am a VW goofball as well, so sites like this are great! I am also setting up my Fiance's 67 Globetrotter for our business as well. The Tradewind will get new flooring and rot repair. Of course a gooooood Polish job is planned. I need to re-organize the rats nest that is also known as my plumbing and electrical area in the rear of the TW. i am going to try to find some pictures of some original set ups as well as some modern aproaches to that mess. I am still trying to figure out some of the inbox functions of this site, so bear with me. Thanks for making me your Friend. I hope to help out and contribute to the community as much as possible. ~Brett~

Hi Rustfalia in SA.
I am up here near Gainesville in Slidell.The 65's are sweet.Do you have a mahogany interior?
Went to the Vintage Rally in Conroe in Feb. that was nice.(first rally) Just got back from the Restoration Rally in ABQ.It was outstanding! I have yet to take my 65 as I am still in rehab mode with floor out.Check my thread "gutting the 65" and I am sure you will recognize lots in common with your 65.
What are your plans for the trailer? Stay in touch Steve Riley
