I`m on to build a overland car with a sleeping possibility inside for two persons. I had chosen a Landcruiser 200 V8 Diesel for this.
My Plan was, to drive from switzerland to southafrica on the east side at November 2012. Then the arab spring starts, and my plans go to the west side for traveling, because of the political situation. But now, it dosnt looks better on the west track - but mabee the situation will change again. Our Backup plan is to ship our car to a destination, and starts the track there.
And we think too about at first to travel in Australia or USA, and wait on a better timeframe for africa.
I hope my english is`nt to bad, for writing my build thread here in english
Last week i do the first step - and get a Mike Sanders corrosion preserve. I think the guys who have to add the Winch and stuff will hate me for that. The car is built at 2011, but has get enough mud below the armor, to allow the corrosion to begin the work...
I think therefore i love watercrossings, that kind of preserve is necessary....
I will add pictures, when the buildup process take the next step
