this is a pic from years ago when i was thinking of buying it

My 21yr old son has been working in various suburbs in brisvegas landscaping. His mates car that they were going in broke down so they have been using my kombi:grind:.. a 74bay with an EJ22 in it...heheh...suddenly these young guys think kombis are cool:cool:...so he come home and says "papa"(cos thats wot he calls me)...do you know of a metallic silver dual cab with big ass wheels and exhausts on that forum of yours and wots in it...spotted it parked in a driveway...heheh the boys were suitably impressed to hear a 4litre quad cam V8 lurked under there:punk:

That does look schmick except for the disgusting radiator at the front, after fitting a nice V8 it wouldn't have taken too much more effort to hide the radiator. From memory there is loads of room under that tray.

I'm surprised I can't see gearbox parts lying on the ground underneath it. :D

hee hee,,, yeah pic was before i bought it,,, but looks "sort of" the same-ish

I`ll be swapping that front mount rad & bar assy "Thing" to something i have in the planning allready,,, it won`t look like a rad but more like a spare wheel mounted on an old std issue Kombi bull bar,,, well that`s the plan anyways,,, but that isn`t going to happen until i sort out the engine mounts & CV joints that are breaking now :-) The g/box seems to be holding up well now,,, Touch my woody :-)

I can smell a trip to Moreton Island for a dam good test comming up soon :-)
