A few weeks ago, while I was on holiday in the Kruger, I asked a guy who was referred to me by my very focused on detail German born dad, to re-spray my bakkie. After 350 000 km it desperately needed one.
I asked for all standard colors. When I got it back it looked like new, except for the belly plate. Can you believe it; shocking “kanarie geel”. You see it from miles away. Anyhow, he did not charge for it, I suppose it’s like a trademark thing for the cars he’s done in the past, or maybe just the manifestation of pure passion, he can’t stop himself… I have respect for that and will therefore keep it yellow. And it makes for a great story.
