There use to be at least one Futuro in Africa.. possibly more. If anyone has more information to
contribute on the Futuros there would appreciate hearing from you.
South Africa
Found one in Port Alfred!! I would like to thank Brent Q. for the foto below of this Futuro.
Hope to post more fotos soon!!
From Dick..
In ".. the 60's or 70's there used to be a road
house in the shape of a flying saucer, on the road from Pretoria to
Kempton Park. It was close to the Waterkloof airbase and burned down
somewhere in the early 70s." [2002-11-21]
From Richard..
"The road house was close to where the R21/N1 freeway interchange is now, in
Elardus Park. Its business was cut off when the freeway to Kempton Park was
built. There is a Piering Road in the area and the interchange is known as
the Flying Saucer interchange or Flieende Piering.(sp?) in the traffic
reports.
As for the burning down, according to the old-timers who knew the place
before and after the freeways were built, well, it is easier than
orgainising a flood......." [2002-11-22]
