I'm in need of a new project.

I'm thinking of converting a Type 3 into a Baja for easy going off road use.

Can anyone post some pics of Bajaed Type 3s here for me, as I've been unable to find any.

Thanks.

Richard.

Thank you for the pics.

The square back on the 4WD chassis is a bit more radical than I was thinking of, but I like it.
