At least its going to good use! I'd imagine a UZ powered 1 gen would be a monster.

I was playing around on Google Earth today and they must be stuck in a time warp because they was at least 3 or 4 years ago when I was pulling the top and putting half doors on in the late spring
yes I needed a tan

Weird how I still get people wondering what happened to this thing. It went down south the end of the summer of 2017, was used for a Lexus engine conversion mock up.
It eventually ended up in the boneyard. Dunno if anyone did anything with the remains after that.

I subscribed to this build way back in 07 when you got it. I remember I had never heard of a Trekker prior to your build thread.
I just caught myself up when I saw your post. Sucks it ended up in the junkyard

I miss build threads... and the forums. I still (infrequent) for research, tips and tricks for how others have potentially done some goofy weird thing that I'm about to do. Currently building a '77 Chinook 4x4, @rkymtnfab on instagram. Just gave you a follow!
