  • Flott resultat! Nå vet jeg hva jeg skal gjøre når jeg kjøper meg en kassebil selv. Er dette den korte eller lange versjonen av Caddy?

  • I added rare earth magnets to the back of the drawer. Just keep adding them until they don’t fly open when you take a corner.🤘😎

  • Hvor kjøpte du de billige finer platene? :)

    @markuseids6696@markuseids66966 ай бұрын
    • På monter/optimera. De kalles pakkeplater, og kan kjøpes på de fleste byggevareforretninger. Du må bare lete litt for å finne de fineste :)

    • Awsome work sir, have you managed to get out in her yet. I am currently in the process to start something like this mate any pointers would help, I do have the 5 seats conversion in mine so would only need it the witdh of the wheel arches. To the back seats and then half way and the shelfs. So jealous.
