Pimp My Ride


Shlakiyah spent winter on Murch's farm in Sostanj. During this time she was ''pimped'' for the road trip.

Workshop team, made up of myself and Murch replaced an air filter, sparking plugs and rear drum brake segments. Further we rebuilt the interior from scratch. Shlakiyah is a custom "pimp", tailored to the personalities and interests of the owners. In our case we need a bed to sleep during travelling, cooking gear, and thick roof isolation to resist hot Anatolian sun.

Shlakiyah was manufactured by Toyota back in 1992 for the African market, hence her robust undercarriage had to be examined. Things look good and nothing will brake, inshallah.

Hej Anna!

trevligt på bokbytet i går och nu, så kul att hitta en sida där man kan läsa om din resa. Den här bookmarkar jag.

Kör försiktigt!

P.S. I am sorry, Peter, if you don't understand this. It's not that interesting, Anna has to translate it for you!
