@ pilgrim mick
Those wheels are the most under-rated wheels (as well as boosts). They look the business with those tyres  |

I like this one. Did you do the work yourself? What is the roof from a dc or 110 and 90 Cheers

The conversation was carried out by Foleys, I bought it already converted.

I like the idea of the through cab to load area approach. also like gull wing doors on rear sides.
will run it as is for a while, do some basics, like chassis treatment and think in a long term approach to see what works. current thoughts are 1. air locker front and rear 2. join two roofs to make one continuous roof with lift up rear door. retaining lower tailgate. 3..remove part rear bulkhead and front if pickup bulkhead. 4.move rear seat mounting back and fit two front seats in rear with cubby between. 5. custom fabricate join and rear sides hicap to taper at std roof. anyway that's the wish list, just need the £ and time now! 6. in board water with shower 7. roof tent direct to canopy roof. 8. deck back out with easily removable camping pods, ie draw, cooker unit etc etc. 9. maintain ability for daily use for dogs/shoot.

Well found a little time today to make a start.
As she arrived:
She sat around for a while as i dropped the oil before realising it needed a 2.2 oil filter that i didnt have the shelf. Its had a new engine oil cooler fitted recently (and a turbo) after a bit of this
Shes looking much lighter. Cheers
