I asked Udo to install a tow-hook in Germany because in Italy it's difficult to register it. Here are some pics.













































































These are the awful wires needed for emergency turn signals and operating of trailer or Eriba lights.










































Tank gauge is not running. In these days I have to check if the problem is electrical or more probably inside the tank.














99,000 miles through the vineyards...

Carpet from Mali (Africa) acts as a seat cover:

3 seems to mean it has a synthetic resin paint
Grey is the color of the paint: Light Grey (L345) body with Grey (80) trim
1102605 is the chassis number: from production schemes we understand it's been produced in 1963
