Here is my projekt i started 2003.
i did all the work from may to august that year, then lost all my inspiration.
But now im about to continue the project!

before i did any work on it:



After a massive rust repair, i begun to disasemble it:



and slowly it became a pickup;












Here the rear wall is beginning to take form..




side window is tryed in




this is how it looks now, not quite finished...




with a sunroof and "sunwall"  Cheesy




My other cars you can see here:
