| Bought the old girl from a farmer in Alton downs for 2500, ended up putting about 7000 into it. Had replace roof, windscreen, and rear surrounds. Cut out both floor pans and replace, fix glow plug issues, full head rebuild (shattered valve) and much more.. Future plans 285/75/16 Either mtz or bfg steel winch bar (waiting on blasting and pain) Steel tray (waiting on paint) Water tank and a few other nick nacks for camping and such Hopefully one day turbo for the big 2h. Doesnt like towing all that well  First got it  After the rebuild and finally registered  First trip to farny  | |

| Have since added muddies 2" lift and compressor, that is where this build will probably end, it's now a full time work truck. Ended up buying a twin locked 80 ute for a toy. So where do I join the club, pics to come | |

| I would really like to know the thought behind it aswell. When I asked when I went for the first look at it all I got was "because they look good" minus the cuts In the guards and bonnet. I am in the process of changing them.. Gonna put sAhara lights on if they fit. | |
