Volksworld Feature 1999

Since seeing it in Volksworld all those years ago, I have always wanted a Trekker, I never would have thought it would be that exact one!

Took the scans from the actual Volksworld mag from 1999!

Random Chat

Was approached by a bloke at Bug Jam who asked if I owned the Trekker, told him yes and he said he has taken a photo of my friends cars and mine and would i like to see it and possible purchase it as he ran a photo stall at the show,

New Shoes

The car came with 2 sets of Porsche Cookie cutters, and I LOVE them as they are one of my favourite wheels, but I have always had a desire for Fuchs, so I finally have managed to get myself a set, copies but I reckon pretty good ones!

The New Engine

Nothing wrong with what was in the car when I got it, but I had always kept the motor from the sale of my bus as I wanted it for the Trekker, I knew it would be a whole heap of fun!!

The RHD 182

Bought this back in Jan 2009 after doing a part exchange on my 1958 RHD Split screen panel van and have never looked back. Here is a selection pictures I based my purchase on as it was coming all the way from the Isle of Man!
