Hi Ged,
What's your plans for the rear tub? Ifor Williams top or something else? I guess you will need some storage for your racing exploits?  Working towards Carry on camping! |

Cheers guys,
Awh not sure about a career but i do enjoy learning. plenty of it in this one, rear tub will be canvased back with lockable tool boxes down the sides over the wheel wells keeping the middle clear for any use. Its been a year since i started and ive made some new friends looking back. Have to say the truck is coming together almost as i pictured it after refitting the rear tub for the final time after making the new rear crossmemeber. Some pics from today anyways.

Only just seen your thread. Been following your build on Facebook and it really is a great build. I'm currently thinking about selling my 130 but wish a had the time and money to do a full rebuild on it. Have you got any plans to bring it across to any shows? Would love to have a good look around.
Chris. |

Cheers Guys, I may go to billing with some of the other nutters, ill see how time and money permits. Well busy week so far, rear doors rebuild with glass then out for a few runs. So shes a tad dirty. but em yes to say it goes well is an understatment, videos hopefully to follow this weekend and the sound deadening is AMAZING quieter than my old 300tdi and V8. So im stepping that up a little and adding some too the doors. the carpet should make it even better. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Also got the rear mudflaps installed and extra coverage over the top to protect the rear cross member Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge and im now working on getting the rocksliders mounted up so i can get them welded and painted. Not sold on the tree bars now i see them might just leave the sliders as they are dimpled. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Cheers, Ged |
