Intriguing....I wonder where it goes.
Also, are the bumper corners missing, or is that what Doka corners look like?

Did you spot that it was a converted 2wd?

Along with no transmission it looks like it has no fuel tank either - unless the 2WD tank is still there.

The one underbelly shot shows very little down to the floor/chassis area. Certainly doesn't match the showy finish up top.

Passenger side(for a LHD car) between the locker door and the wheel arch where the louvers are in the ad.
The louver placement makes it obvious to a truck owner that it is a 2wd.

Yeah, plus the fact that it actually states in the advert it is a converted 2wd!

Thanks for that, but maybe I said it wrong ......what I meant was "I wonder how they get the fuel in the tank", because there's no sign of a fuel filler cap anywhere.

I saw a conversion on the Samba and the tank was put under the rear bed and accessed through the engine hatch
