I can attest to the combi's being wanted. I sold my 57 Combi which came from the Washington State Desert area which made it solid and rust free. Was also A good runner. I had it on ebay and couldn't believe the amounts of bids from Europe. It ended up going back to it's home land. Brought a great price too. I made a profit which sometimes is hard to do in the hobby. Restorations can be way more expensive than the value of the car. But my Combi did me proud!
