IIRC pickup conversions are popular in Denmark, because the annual taxes on a 928 sports car exceed the value of the vehicle, but the registration on a truck is negligible...

I guess those are the German version of "Dualies" on the rear. Needs Gumbo Mudders instead of Pirellis. Where is the dog box, winch, light bar, Confederate flag, and buggy whip CB antenna?

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/barf.gif) Sorry, I don't see the improvement. Waste of a good car. I'll take the motor though (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Hey, a german El Camino!

But, jeez, if you were going to do that for 'utility', you wouldn't
need to make it a 6-wheeler. That's just for loser customizers
to find something to do with their time, like the old Boxster
pic with the doors that rotated up.

I betcha they have some rear brake bias issues to contend with. But that matters little when you can carry dead animal carcasses around town in style.
