Mate, the solution is so simple, and ya don't need to spend doosh ya haven't got, on stuff ya don't need, that might, or might not, work.
When ya go camping, make sure you've got at least 4 of ya best mates going with ya. Before ya go, grab some bikes off the verge that are being thrown out, and strip the pedals, sprockets and chains from them.
Cut holes in the passenger side and back floors, and rig the pedals, chains and sprockets, so they're connected to the tailshaft of the Suzy.
A bloke with your skills, could knock this setup up, just on a Saterday arvo, with the aid of a slab, an oxy set, a Chinese MIG welder, and a handful of nuts and bolts from Supercheap!
Once ya get going, when a
hill comes up, tell ya mates to start pedalling like crazy! The power boost will be nuthin' short of amazing, mate! You'll be able to blow off Commodores with Chev badges on them, like they were Mums Camry!
I know all about this technique, 'cos me and my mates used to run a Kombi van, and that's what we had to do, to get up hills!
It was that successful, people used to think we had a Porsche engine transplant!
Go fer it, mate! - you'll never have that lack of power feeling, ever again! Don't forget to post lotsa pics of the moddies!
Cheers - Ron.
