    Looking good.
    Did the rims come from Roverparkboys? I see they're knocking them out at 100bucks or so.
    And that armour (or should I say "armor"?!) looks tidy. Is that what you're putting fab'ing yourself?
    As you may have seen, my 110 gets over here hopefully next week. Maybe I'll be looking for some rocksliders and stuff.

    i got the rims from Keith Gott, a friend brought a container over from the UK and i got a set included with his stuff....cost was about $100.00 per.....including shipping.

    all the armour/armor is built in my shop in Langley BC......actually Rover Park Boys (Mark) has asked me if im interested in suppling them with my armour/armor

    The axles and drive flanges are Maxi Drive..i buy direct from them in Oz

    yes i know your getting close being full time resident.....must be getting excited

    Hmmm. Well I guess Langley isn't that far away. Might be a loooooong drive in the series though. I'll have to spend time convincing the wife that we need a vacation.

    Gord,

    Nice looking rig. Is that front bumper a custom one?
