*mostly for show when you have a perkins lump upfront

That's all I think, unless something else decides to fall off

My old series IIA had a perkins up front....wasn't that loud.

And lap belts on a rear bench seat? Or the sidewards facing bench seats?



This weekend, mines getting muddied, dirtied and broken! Lets go!

Sideways bench seats.

I think part of the noise is because the breather is off to let it start without the flamer - something I need to rectify soon - this weekend if the weather holds.

So far I've

Had some holes welded over.
Fitted a CB radio
fitted a steering guard, Jate rings and shackles.
Fitted a bull bar
got it muddy
anoyed the neighbours by turning the road brown.

Future plans are:

Fit a couple of 100w 8" spotlamps
fit diff guards
Fit some mud tyres (235 x 85 x 16)
New suspension (2" lift)
sort out source of wet carpets.
keep anoying the nieghbours.
