Ich bin sehr interessiert, aber ich habe ein paar Fragen. 1. Können Sie Bilder von dem, was Sie verkaufen, teilen? 2. Ist es mit Topfgelenk Achsen kommen? 3. Hat es mit dem Shifter kommen? Ich habe ein früheres Auto mit ferngesteuertem Getriebe und Gummikupplungen... ich suche nach etwas Kompletterem, um den Wechsel zu vollziehen. Entschuldigung für mein Deutsch.

Ja, ich wohne 5 Minuten von der Autobahn entfernt, die ständig gebaut wird. Ich liebe die Freiheit, die Geschwindigkeit zu wählen, die man möchte ... aber nicht so sehr mit einem 40-PS-Motor. Mein Traum ist es, meinen Honda-Umrüstsatz von den USA nach Deutschland zu bringen, damit er eines Tages für den Straßenverkehr geeignet ist. Aber bis dahin reicht ein 1275 mit 3,2-Achsantrieb.

Alex,
Ich bin auch interessiert. Ich habe einen 998 mit Ferngetriebe in meinem Innocenti und werde auf einen 1275-Motor mit Stangenwechselgetriebe umsteigen. Dieser Prozess ist für mich in Deutschland neu. In den USA stopfen wir einfach den Motor rein und los geht's... keine Inspektion, keine Emissionen, keine Sorgen.

Almost done, wish I could post the quick video I put together. The mini drives great and pulls very strong!

I like the matte colour, too :) Really nice overall look.
Have you scrapped the green van front panel yet? They're a bit hard to come by in decent quality these days.
Ultimately the truck is going to be painted... orange. I recommend him go all out with House of Kolor Tangerine Orange, but we will see the outcome. Yes I still have the Green front end, it will hang on his garage wall in time.

Rust repair..... and removal of old kit.

This is where the truck began:

I just wanted to share a build that I am completing for a very good friend/customer in Massachusetts, USA. It has been a long build as the base, a 1968 Mini Pickup the shell needed a fair amount of metal work before we could start. I bought the pickup as a rolling incomplete project that had a Honda K20 with an extended flip front. I prefer the Honda D16 Sohc and a steel front. So we set out on tackling removing the old conversion and installing our conversion kit, MCM conversion kit that retains stock suspension and geometry. Matt and I differ a bit in color palates, but overall we have a similar vision of what the final product should be. Sorry for the English, Mein Deutsch ist noch nicht so gut.
So I will start this project off of where we are at right now, we are getting close to going for first test drive tomorrow, just waiting for new Hondata S300 to be installed tonight, and a few small jobs to do before we can go cruising. Then I will post a few from the beginning and how we got here.

Welcome mate!

Hi John,
moving over to another country, means learning new rules and regulations. One way is to indulge in the old world and quit with your business. The other way is to take the challenge, studdy all the rules and regulations, find the little gaps and back doors and continue your business in the new but more regulated world. You have lots of experience and successfull projects in you backpack. There is no reason to let all these behind. In an enviroment where almost everything is allowed, its always easy. And everybody can do easy. But in an enviroment with stricter rules, only the best are successfull. Just take it as another level. Of course there is a market for your projects. Not only in Germany, all over Europe. And you can bring your personel american touch to it. Making your projects roadlegal in Germany is not only a challenge and hard work, its also a quality label.
So go on and face the challenge.
so long
the Doc
This is how I always think. My wife thinks things are always black in white, I think there is a lot of gray area. I'm up for the challenge. By not being a citizen I will have to play by the rules, but hopefully find a means of achieving the goals I want.
Took some new pictures of the kit and accessories last night.
