Hi Fred
I'm hoping to get most of the body work all sorted sometime around the
end of this month, and then I'll be kitting out the interior and doing
many of the other modifications throughout the summer while using it
around the UK.
>From the end of Sept and early Oct I'll be running though a load of the
weirder mechanics of the truck that I'm not used to, with the guys I got
the truck from, and then be leaving this country during October.
I'm actually currently considering entering the Paris-Dakar race in the
truck category as a kinda launch to the trip!!! ... probably the first
Reo ever to consider entering!!!
Full details will be on www.thetipi.com very soon, we've got a site in
development at the moment and it should be going live in a few weeks
time! :-)
Many thanks
Mike
