RIP Ferocious Feroza

Post by ShinyDiscoBalls »

Well it's happened.

The missus has advised she's laying an egg so Ferocious is going to make room for a Disco. Need the extra room and comfort for mother and baby.

Will keep in touch here for sure and will be looking at bulding a toy rig next year as the Disco will be reserved as mum's bus and tourer only.

Have to say though, love the new truck. Here's a pick.

Cheers

Cheers people... Thanks for you kind words... it's good to know the ol' swimmers still know what they are doing... :D :D :D

No wont be in a hurry to break anything on this one.

But it sure was fun turning a good reliable Feroza into one big heap of crap in under 2 years!!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

This one won't be seeing tracks the likes Ferocious saw.

Budget build up coming your way next year though... There's a 1973 SWB Nissan down the road.... hmmm $200 and a slab maybe???? ;) ;) ;) ;)

No 80's... it's a Land Rover dealership...

If it had tweety bird on the wheel cover I would have given it to to my mate Denis.... to go with his skirt!

But if it had a Marvin the Martian wheel cover saying "Give me space"... I would definately have kept that...

Cheers Andy...

That looks like a beast... give me about 3 years and that's what my Disco will look like.

Just can't spend any more money... wife wants a hous before th baby comes...

If you require finance for the new rig let me know mate!!!! :D :D :D :D

Although I did get the finance for my rig through the dealer... they were cheeper by about $15 a month and over 5 years thats a lot of dosh...
