I looked at that....Mrs Greeni wants a truck cab for pottering around in. It has to be red too.
I agree with Martin, needs tyres.

Happy New Truck Thumbs Up

The front tyres have got about 20minutes of life left in them Shocked
the BFGs on the back are 236/70s and and are in reasonable condition, so I was going to replace the fronts with the same unless somebody can suggest something better Whistle

Generally the bodywork is good and it had a full respray 12 months ago (its not actually Tangiers orange apparently, but looks like it to me)

Chassis is OK and the bulkhead good.

Need a good tidy up in cab and ....
a new steering wheel (again any suggestions??)
radio (ipod and bluetooth??)
Rear view mirror not attached
Near side wing mirror glass needs replacing
Plastic casing around drivers seat belt reciever is missing
top of fuel tank around sender unit is rusty Shocked
Dash binnacle wobbly

Then it'll hopefully be....
A-bar and spots to the front
Black Chequer plate to bonnet (???)
Full Tilt Cool .
