Spy pic/chop look at....

Post by 80diesel4play »

Guys for those who asked/begged etc...

here's a pic from me - of what my new beast will look like.

My mate who's doing teh chops is a bit shy on letting the cat out on how he does em - but this is what my project will look like - with the rear tailgate being used as my back window....

Full internal cage and total GQ driveline. 308 motor and some neat shite for it - the bfg's that you see are still for sale - set of 5 and all at 75% + for $500 - see for sale section!

:D :D

Hmmm Ruff..... :P

Yeah similar but going to race clip the big old tailgate window in the back with four point internal cage!

I was going to bob it - but i reckon I could use the length for extra stuff like my dog and swag/esky/tools/booxe etc......

But drool factor ....... :D

I'm also using the rear top tailgate shortened as the rear window but mine will be able to open and lift up and removed by slotting the top hinges. should be almost done this weekend.

Hey 4-Play (he he) when are we getting out the grinder, i cant wait to go the chop on yours. Good to see so many Rover buffs out there and so many different ideas. Talking of ideas, what do you guys think of this little number I popped of the drawing board.
