I can't say it's exactly my thing but that is an awesome piece of work and really well executed. I especially like parking one wheel on an oil drum.

Nice

Not my thing either but really appreciate what youve done. An awesome bit of kit. Very nicely done.

That's the dogs bollox mate. Love it.

Any pics of the back end and inside?

Looks lovely. I bet it's extremely capable... well done.

Very Nice

loving that!
got a picture of the inside rear? and the rear?

Reminds me of a sj410

Lovely disco fella, looks real tidy, as folk have already asked do you have any photos of the inside, in particular the subaru seats, I'd be really interested to see how they look and how you've mounted them.
