Hey @cletus / @KKtrips is this something that can be certed? for some reason i thodught onotching has to be welded, or it the other way around?

So there were heaps of ants in the cab when I got it, bombed it but they buggers kept coming back and was getting nowhere. Realized there must have been a super nest somewhere when I parked up in port Douglas and there was white sands in the cab next day. So decided to get some bait. Holy shit. I emptied a while syringe out around the truck and it was all gone in a couple hours. So I'm going to buy another 3 and just keep putting it out.

A massive pothole or mound in the road.

The truck or the shock?

Well , hit whats known as a shock breaker.

So @Spencer whispered in my ear. Hnnng

Yeah man , its proper cancer now. buuut again. the rest is pretty solid. My fault, had the resources and did nothing to the poor thing. When i picked it up of @Camel about Port Macquarie i must have hit the vent to engage the a/c, didnt notice until cruising and the engine tone would change. I shat myself. then realised what was the go. that is amazing. Im amazed at this truck, aside from the mirrors and dumping it . its o.g . all the stickers , all the o.g jacks etc. i love it. Yeah it 100% need some love. Dont really want a show truck but i reckon a bit of love to treat the tumou

Yeah man , felt bad when i first saw her. Buuuut most of the rust lines legit just wipe off. along with the fucked paint haha. The bonnet has got proper cancer in the two corners, but that was there when it got parked up, and as it does, just spread. There is also a patch on the front l/h of the cab that is still not holey, but needs some attention asap. and the footwell, but again. still solid as. I was saying to Diddy, im amazed there isnt more rust. like its all surface. dunno what these made these from, but its pretty decent

On that note. Vgt turbos, the breathers. the vgt controllers. dunno what else. its been avery long time

Oh that would be gross. way under powered. Actually thought it was the j05 to starrt with, which is another really good motor. like you say. filters and gaskets. they just keep going.

Plans you ask? Well, to start with i want to pull everything within reason out , clean , scuff and epoxy everything in floor paint pretty much. Then to suss the deal with the compressor. Go over it to ensure everything is tickity boo. Then we will see. they beauty about it, is a the huge amount of space inside. so tbh could jam the Kx in , a swag/ make little mezzanine floor to sleep in . has all the batteries. put some solar panels on the roof. then it can pretty much do anything. i mean , no sand bugging . but yeah. sweet rig. im fucking stoked,

Iunno what box. has the bulletproof J07c in it.

And the back

Hi all , thought id make a thread for this as it will be a sort of project. So background story, THis was the truck I drove around when doing field service in Brisbane. pretty much from goldcoast to sunshine coast. it was a great truck , non turbs so will go forever. Anyhow I jumped on a plane to get Bess the C10 sorted. Caught up with my old boss and saw it parked up , so later in the day i messaged himand we ended up talking about the possiblility of purchasing the truck and body. Came to an agreement and I would head down to have a sticky beak . So I did and shook hands on the
