I know why. Because if you are going to fuck something up, you might as well fuck it up so bad that it becomes one of the most awesome fuck-ups ever conceived.
I love it! _________________ nothing |

I met the owner of that unimog, when I had my mog a few years ago. It is extremely well done, the VW was the perfect donor for the camper box back section. Not an abortion by any stretch. Oh, and 8 speeds forward, 4 in reverse, with about 110hp. |
