    The turbo in it is only running 9 lbs boost, wouldn't have bought it without one. She steps out abit now on the tired donk, fresh motor & intercooler + wind up the boost........ Should be fun then!! Already know how painfully slow they can be, Dad had a non turbo with a smaller motor If weather behaves over the weekend I should be cutting & start assembling the bottom section.

    Rough mocking up means I can only go bout 1600mm forward from back of cab. Looks like it'll be @ 4100 long x 2100 wide x 2000 high overall at this stage, + deck is @ 800 off the ground Pity it probably won't be ready enough for Augusts Hamner excursion.

    Threw some money at it & treated it to a set of Gabriel shockies, it now sits in the drive with a flat battery. Sum idiot left the radio on! Resisting the temptation to dress it up, it ain't gunna be a showy money pit. Nudge bar, driving lights & canopy is about it! And get another donk, freshen that up & turn up the wick a bit. Just for the record with 3/4 tank of fuel it weighs 1670kg as it sits now. Be interesting how heavy the slide-on winds up being.

    Update guys, tin arse nephew has lucked onto a better chassis. So we'll scrap this one & keeping cab & running gear...
  8. gettinroundtuit
    Has been suggested to the boy to get fibreglass replacement panels too. As for the chassis, wait & see. The tin arsed shit is likely to trip over another better one, as he drives a stock truck round Southland.
  9. gettinroundtuit
    The thought is maybe chase up a better chassis if he has to, only paid $200 for it motor only needs a tune up or just swap the carb. I'll take more pics later after sun moves round.
