Finished!

[da SLUG man]

well, after 6 weeks of beer breaks and long hours of looking out at the dark garden and rain... i finished putting it back together!! (except the flares on the front bumper!)
took me a good 45 minutes work!... nearly had to stop for another beer, but soldiered on!

doesn't really look much different, just harder to get in with my work trousers on!

p.s.... gotta re fit interior, but wanna re tighten body mounts in a few days first!

[da SLUG man]

spot the difference... 1st is when i first bought it... 2nd is now.

Love it without the steps, just need some nice rock sliders now to protect your bodywork when you go offroading

I got 31x10.50x15's on the standard rims on the surf,
the Pick up's got 35" Boggers on 12x15 steel Chromes for off road, and 35" MT's on 10x15 alloys for road use. http://www.4x4toys.co.uk/mytruck.html
