How cool is that
Well the truck on the left is mine...you can´t have it all I guess. Making it into LRO within 8 days after the photoshoot is amazing enough. Getting the title, too would have been beyond anything

After 10 days in Norway (thanx Harald for the hospitality and great lunch) I am heading back south.
After many emails and lengthy conversations over the past 12 months I visited the Hellgeth brothers and picked up a length of used tracks to further experiment with my modular track concept....
Another week on the road and work in France and then I am back working on the car.
The prototype of my utility-rack is now also undergoing the 200+kg dynamic load test
So long.
P.S.: This is just a test so don´t wonder.... König Dämpfer aus Thüringen ....

Sounds good!

Sadly I am not allowed to publish any of the few images I took.
They were just finishing a beautyful Häglund with all leather interior and camper in the trailer...just awesome but as it was for a very publicity shy client...no pictures
Then there were a few other prototypes and also...no pictures
I will be back at their place later this month, on my way down to the Breslau Raid and I will then shoot a little "workshop-report".
The story about the pallet truck is pretty unspectacular. I build an Armani and an YSL boutique in Oslo the last 10 days and they didn´t have a pallet truck in the store, so I kept the one that was on the delivery truck and am now returning it this weekend n my way to Paris....
But before that I will work a bit on my track concept

We had Robert over for lunch and much enjoyed his company. As a bonus we got to see the awesome 130 up close and personal. It's a magnificent sight!

Understood. I look forward to the workshop report.
A Hagglund with leather interior and camper in the trailer (and CDI powered of course) sounds like the only way to travel across punishing terrain. :smiley_drive:
Keep traveling safe!!

I have a Hägglunds Bv206 licence from my (Norwegian) Army service days. They are so capable off road that it's not even funny! And amphibious...

Just a note....maybe I am too honest about what I do and plan, too open about my ideas...I don´t know
Just found out again that someone else, whom I trusted as a friend is trying to take my ideas regarding bolt-on portals to the market as his
Someone else I have known for years and who wanted to help me with my alternative energy concept is taking my ideas as their own and asks me to pay ....
I will try and sort a few things and be back sometime.... Sorry...
All this politics is just bollocks!

Robert,
That sucks. Best of luck.
Will this effect your trip across Russia and the Western US? If not, when do you plan on being in the UT/CO area?
