Saved the tent and rangie frontal shot on the desktop, looks very relaxing...

When we head up the coast next, I'll try to catch up so that you can show US some of this place too. Two Isuzu Rangies might scare off the fish though.

That 'Fender with the broken steering sounds pretty dodgy, A friend of mine bought one of those Ex Fraser Island rental 110's, a 2003 model Td5, over the internet. It hadn't seen much action though, as there was only minor rust and the rooflining hadn't completely dropped yet. 6 months later and the truck got written off on Bruny Island, just off Kettering in south Tas by a 'cruiser indicating left and turning right!

Working out a price for the bits you need Ash, I'll get back to you soon. Are you in a hurry?

Don't tempt me, I have an excellent trailer and the other half would be fighting with me to get to the drivers seat first!!

She does that every time we go wheeling, I think i end up in the passsenger seat about 50% of the time. She's not a bad driver either, got the Rangie in and out of some pretty rude situations with out any damage. I rode with a mate in his Disco while she followed in my RR a couple of trips ago, we called it a 'training' trip, and refused to answer any Q's so that she had to make all her own decisions. Even after dark we heard very little over the two way as she followed his Disco through some rocky and slippery stuff.
I'm pretty lucky to have a girl who loves my Rangie as much as I do.
