Hi Guys

Saw a finished new 100 Series Single cab today by darkside conversions in Romsey. It has 35's and the boys from ATS have set it up, including full safari turbo kit.

my qestion is why....
I can understand turning a wagon into a duel cab, but what is the point of a single cab when you can buy one original and save the $10,000 to $20,000 tfor the conversion to put towards something else.

exactly, why buy a wagon when you want a ute.
A very expensive way to get a ute.
Don't know how much this cost him but there is a mob near me that do these conversions and they can cost up to 20 grand.

Because 70 series are uncomfortable, and spring under axle.

Nice conversion.

yes only in the back for some time now I think it would be cheaper to coil the back.But there aren't to many 100 ute's around

I like it. Looks better than the crap looking 1960's look of the 70series.
Nice conversion with good lines.

Front end is down,as it wasn't yet adjusted and it has the ATS drop kit under the front, so it sit up when adjusted.

I believe it was done to take a full length custom camper on the rear, its has a the factory turbo diesel and it is very comfortable. It is getting set up to go around OZ.

May be they wanted an AUTO turbo diesel ute. Why do people own vehicles when they can catch a train, ride a bicycle or just walk.

That would make a very comfortable long distance camper.
Good idea if thats what it is for.
