Well it"s finally home have stripped the old clear coat off, put some heavier coils on the front, now it sits level. Next it"s off to panel shop to get the floor & engine cover made & guards trimmed, new clear coat, the wheel alinement shop to get it squared up, the the brakes & full new wiring harness so hope this all goes quickly. CAN"T WAIT .

Just a quick update the floor & engine cover are done, 285x75 16 baja mtz are on, next it off to the panel shop to get the guards chopped & the paint fixed. Still to do brakes , radiator, wiring,i work away so time to work on the 4x4 is hard to do but it's slowly getting there hope to have this on the road by the end of the year.

Hey Garry, cant wait to see it finished, this is going to be an awesome ride. I have a suggestion, if you hav'nt already thought about it, this is going to be a mean looking machine, so have you thought about a set of west coast truck mirrors, that would set it off nicely. Are you keeping the tail lights, i kind of like them, they sort of fit the 4x4 look.

had a look at this machine in person yesterday, wow even more impressive than i thought. this frankenstein has had some serious upgrades, and the workmanship looks tops.

cheers garry for the tow bar and letting us see the van, was an awesome day except got a flat on the beach driving home and had to change it in the rain... also had some fun out running the waves at the point :)

here is a photo of someone who has gone even more nuts on the 4x4, pity its not a beddy.

Just got back from the steering shop, axles all squared up & power steering hooked up, still on the list to do, trim guards, brakes ,radiator , dash & wiring.          Slowly getting closer to finishing.
