Squareback Off-Roader

Post by **Pine** » Mon Mar 26, 2012 7:06 am

Seen in Pretoria last weekend - built on a heavily modified ladder chassis, running gear & suspension of a Bay Bus. Water cooled VW Sharan engine. Still a bit rough around the edges, but this is going to be something very special (and capable!) when completed...

Maybe because it was built in a car port, and not in a Garage?

Doesn't matter where it is built - some...(ok ALL) cars look better lowered

I think that could be quite cool with the right colour, maybe charcoal
Also add bullbars and sidesteps and roof mounted spots. Could be sick!
and raised white lettering on the tyres
