Chassi transplant

Has anyone toyed with the idea putting a CF shell on a different chassi that has more benefits? Just getting ideas for my next project, hehe

If i did another project (which i have no room for) I was thinking of doing a twin cab ute CF, with tail gate and all.
will have to leave that on the "one day" list
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

about twenty years ago a guy i used to know had an old morris van (j2 i think) made into a twin cab ute with a fifth wheeler and using a matching van made  a gooseneck trailer.
Maybe Nigzy could do some of his funky art stuff and come up with a swb made into a twincab with a gooseneck made from a lwb. Tried drawing it but I'm certainly no artist and won't inflict my scribblings on anyone.
not sure but either or both may have been dual axle????

Hope I win Lotto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

G'day

NSW Fire Services got 4 red dual cab 7 seater CFL trucks built. They went to auction and BHP Newcastle bought one. I drove it around the plant for 12 months and loved it. It was a fun machine.

I tried to buy it but they would not sell it. BHP had a policy that everything in the plant went for scrap no matter what the condition.

The problem I have is that most of my stories end with... and that is why I am not allowed to go back there!
