Trusty Rusty TREKKA
While out collecting fire wood the other weekend ,I came across the remains of this TREKKA
It would appear that it has rolled down this bank
As found

Wow, I'm just impressed you recognised what it is! Looks like most of the body is gone?

I wont ever worry about rust in my Monaro again, and my sanity in taking it on now I have seen this.

Hi Steve.It was pretty easy with the SKODA badge on the motor

The fuel tank needs a bit of work,it could do with a Momo Steering wheel ???

Hi John I know the vintage boys start sometimes, with a lot less,its called stupidity coupled with dedication

Hey Jamie A- the makings of a new SID or another kiwi special-after all, Trekkas were kiwi specials
-
The MARKSON body would fit pretty good

I know the Treka was NZ made, but did they actually use a piece of distressed reinforcing rod in the construction, as is evident in post 15.....somehow attached to the petrol tank.
Do you remember the ad for the machine......will go anywhere a fourwheel drive will go.........yeah right. They did have a limited slip diff which helped. I worked for a farmer out at TeKowhai in 1963, and he had a Treka......Landrover lookalike. The rear axle assumed some rather alarming positive camber at times, especially when going along the side of a hill. Didnt inspire much confidence as I recall but he, the farmer, seemed to like it, and was ok to go and get the cows at 4.30, in the morning, in the dark, in the middle of winter.!!!!!

Colour Trekka tough!
Wasn't that the ad?
