Saw loads of these in Siberia, did think it'd be a great project for someone capable of doing a project.

Now that would be an interesting import!

Personally I like the East German Barkus - using the Wartburg two stroke engine:

There was one ebay a while ago converted to a camper van

i think these have a bit of character. Look perfect for converting, but i suspect they arent to reliable.
