I can't decide if it looks better with the doors on or off. A translation of the Arabic: The horse is like steel (talking about a car?). Huss how can you have 15-inch tyres on Atiks, that are 16-inch?  | |

Hi nadd, we were travelling alongside an old railway, which was built by the French in the 1920's and 30's, to get raw materials (iron ore, mangan,...) transported from Niger to the then French homeland - Algeria. Le cheval de fer in this context means railway. Here you go with a couple of pictures to make your decision a little bit easier on how the Wolf looks best...

Hallo raicar, Thanks for the extra photos - now I am really confused - I think I love them all equally Even my wife commented on me scrolling up and down the screen, "seems you are obsessed"! Also more interest has been added to the photos with the addition of the pickup and PUR or PUR lookalike, with a very similar number plate, must be the same distinguished driver  I see what you mean about the railway - it is great that travellers take the time and interest to try to understand their chosen area of travel. Do you have any previous adventures or plans to see the empty quarter (rub' al khali) desert in the Arabian peninsula? | |

Posts: 2230 | RE: Good mornin' America... removing the bumper is a good idea if you use a trailer alot. i damaged my cabrio's bumpers on a few occasions. [ofcourse my lack of knowledge was the main reason and the bumpers paid the consequences  ] raicar, what are the rings found on the side panels of the wolfe? by the rear bumper on the side and by the side door? they look like shackels? | |

Hi Huss, in fact the OEM colour was BRONZEGRAUEN . The car was in 1996 completey refurbished in Graz to MB1474. The upper side of the dashboard is coloured in "brazil", the downside in "dade" or "beige", however the colour is called?! The braking light comes from the early 463 convertible and was adapted to fit the Wolf. The hooks are there to lift the Wolf or tie the Wolf down firmly to a palette as pictured below:Edited by raicar 1/9/2011 4:13 PM (Wolf G-liftet.jpg) (Fly P4 fly - up, up in the sky.jpg) Attachments ---------------- Wolf G-liftet.jpg (445KB - 3 downloads) Fly P4 fly - up, up in the sky.jpg (48KB - 3 downloads) | |
