I think that until the end of the year I will return to work on her...
The metal work on the 181 is allmost done...
More 5 or 6 days and I will start the paint...

Thanks Mark! My fayher in law say the same... "Keep pratice on the 181 and the Split will be better!"
About the "final product", should be something like this, in RAL 6014 coulor, as original:
No lower suspension or special wheels... as factory...

Olá Marco.
The van is still waiting... The Trekker is not finished...
But about your project, that's good news! When do you start?

hello.
More than one year latter, the girl is still at the same...
But allready a star!
With many parts from the Trekker inside...
The good news are that the trekker is allmost ready for the final paint and I will return to the work on her soon (ok, maybe this year... )

One year latter, it's finished...
5 years of work on him... only on weekends...
27 of may was the day that was ready (allmost one of the morning) to be on a meeting at 7...
Now we need to discuss at home who will be next... the split or this one...
Was on a parking lot for the last ten years and was going to the scrap... so we saved
from that...HUGO bOSS
