Ben_J85JTY Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Might I suggest you have a look at Ralph Hardwicks overland prepared D1. His website is http://www.overland-rovers.com/ Well worth a look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g&t Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Peter and Eileen Crichton (??) have been around the world several times in their disco 1. I've read their articles in the mag & it warmed my heart to see that their steed was a 3.5V8, instead of the obligatory TDI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnarne Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I've built a bagage divider which unfolds as a double bed This is the prototype: I've now rebuilt it, using thicker materials. This is how it looks in the woods of Poland during 33rd Pomerania last year, ready to sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamparks Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Might I suggest you have a look at Ralph Hardwicks overland prepared D1. His website is http://www.overland-rovers.com/Well worth a look! Thanks for that, I had visited that site before and lost the link. I looked at Ralph's roof shelf and I"m not sure that would work for me as I need to keep the rear seats for carting my tribe around I want to have one just in the rear cargo area. Maybe I could build an aluminium frame and somehow suspend from the alpine window surrounds and it would be strong enough and not sag in the middle? Anyone else have any suggestions?
