Super/stupid light mate. Was worse with no tray on it that's for sure. Traction can be a bit of an issue, especially on grass!!

Took a few pics of Stumpy today, finally got the tray on and the back welded in properly, had to put in a lexan rear window as the glass one wouldn't quite fit..the previous owner had dodgily tacked the back into place and it was a bit tight for the glass  ...being an ex camper I was worried about rego but my roady guy assures me as its a cab chassis it is no problem...She's running a warm 253 and as its the sound I am after and not the punch that's fine by me. I will however change the single exhaust for a dual as that will sound better still. There are a pair of Valiant seats in at the moment that will be swapped with the original shortys out of our camper, the Val seats are comfy but are too high and hit the rear window, so will be better in the Hi-Top. I build bikes so this will mainly be used to haul those, the tray suits perfectly and will fit more than my WB ute. Not a fan of Fords so the next best thing to an F truck is this baby. I love my truck and can't wait to get it on the road, no show stopper as I use my stuff, not just for ornamental purposes!! In saying that plans are for a bright red paintjob done by me and an interior refit...maybe modify the tray later. I don't do nut n bolt rebuilds on cars for various reasons (the least not being lack of patience- I wanna drive 'em!!)

Hi all, finally able to access this site after about 20 tries over the last month or so.....only took me to move from the middle of nowhere to a small village where the reception is good without a booster...but here I am. Thanks to Wendy Hall for her patience with my impatience!!!
OK so we own an 80 CF Hi-top camper running a 202 4 speed. Fuel pump failure the other day on the side of the road so I got a lift to the nearest mates (20klm from breakdown point) and borrowed an electric one, plumbed it in to the failed mechanical one and wired the pos up to the dimmer switch on the floor,lights on-fuel pump on, lights off, pump off. Funny how we have every part on board except a fuel pump, always the way.
We also have a CF cab chassis running a 253 auto setup. A recent purchase bought from the FB site from Toowoomba for the lowly price of $1350 delivered the 2.5 hrs!! An absolute steal I assure you. Now has a steel tray that's been trimmed, only a very little ways from being on the road, then the mods can begin...
We also have a 1980 Suzuki Carry, with 26,000original klms on the clock, bought from an elderly client now gone into care. A good mate of mine so this will be kept in his memory.
A WB Holden Kingswood utility, another 253 but a LOT hotter than the CF.
Oh and my lovely fiance' drives an i30 Hundy UGH!! (at least she's looking for an Austin Healey Sprite!!)
Looking forward to this site finally, glad to be on board, thanks.
Troy
