Hi Lowell,
yesterday I've made a picture of our 'onboard'workshop, which we are reorganizing and empty now.
And on a typical Dutch rainy day like today I've made a small clip with a onboard cam driving experience.
You find it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H-tX1PKAbw
It's just 5...
Fun! Nice to hear about your Morocco travels. So you are familiar with places like Zagora, Foum Zhuid and Gorge du Dade...?
You have any plans going again that direction?
It's a shame Lybia is so unstable at the moment... There are more guns now then in WW2!
You did the Dakar in 1997 / 1998?
Must have been the crossing with WesternSahara.
There is only 1 small road through the minefield to cross this border.
There are still problems with some liberation front- Polisario I guess...
Thank you! We spend a lot of time rebuilding it....
But it's fully worth the effort as you see!
Did you see the pictures of tractor-pulling?
We've nearly beaten a Komatsu bulldozer.... only 4 meters short....
Did you see the videos? Great!
The topspeed is estimated at 190km or so...
We have a topspeed of 172km measured by GPS at the highway.
On dirtroads, 80-90km. is no problem... :)
All wheels can be locked (in 4 ways) and the tyrepressure can be chanced from the cabine.
Have a nice day!
Willem
Hi Lowell,
We have no living space inside.... just a simple workshop, tools & tyres, etc..
Although, sometimes I sleep in it. We have about 700 liter warm water with us (heat exchange with exhaust).
It heats up the interior a few degrees. And that makes it quit comfortable on chilly nights...
Hi there,
we totally rebuild it and go for off-road rally with it.
See @ http://www.aquadeck8x8rallyteam.nl/video/video6.html - this was in Poland.

And we have 1100HP now.... :ylsmoke:
Best regards,
Willem de Zeeuw...
