Does such a discovery exist like the one you are planning?
Time to google :lol:

Matt Fenner from ARB southern built a disco ute but has sinced sold it so i cant get any pics.Looked sweet as and would love to do one myself.Have a look at the photo,s from the Ateco Winch Challenge.I would link them but i am a computer retard.

I'm not so keen on the look of the bobtailed disco, but i reckon the ute ones look awesome!! The ARB Southern one looked the goods. :cool:

Hmm, that gives me an idea.........

Matts disco isnt to bad, but i dont like the way it is chopped. The photos above are of mates cars, since which the disco has been bobed and the window and cab have been finished.

I will be getting picks soon.

Ive got a couple of crap pics of Matts disco at the Ateco as well, so i;ll scan them

not a fan of the look of the bobbed disco, but really like the practicallity for wheeling.

I can't wait till January now, when I get stuck into my project again, good by RR body and bring on the Series shell

Posted: **Thu Dec 16, 2004 8:39 am**

well if i cant find a cheap wrecked disco, I might have to go to my POS with the grinder and tube up a tray for it

.

I was intending on leaving the dodgy finish as cost cutting is a major major thing i am factoring into this

This one was in the Denny's NZ Challenge - too big to have in the thread, so check the link

i see you saw my post over on dweb :lol:

Thats the cheese! I searched for an hr for a disco like that.

There you go Grimace, a blueprint!

Posted: **Thu Dec 16, 2004 1:37 pm**

I like what i am seeing and its silver too ( i like silver )

Ow i want it similar to that only abit more effort in the tubing and a full exo :cool:

Posted: **Thu Dec 16, 2004 1:42 pm**

Not the prettiest looking thing. Front end looks too big. I think I prefer the look of the Style side or a Rangey Ute.

HSV Rangie are these 35*10.5 ET's on theDisco? Where is this pic taken AU or USA? Interesting to see them on rock

For the bobbed Disco operation will the rear end of the chassis be cut by how much?
How much weight reduction is achieved?

The guy driving the bobed diso is an Aussie named Norman Hall, in the USA at the National Land Rover Rally, the obstical known as the Crack.
