Did you end up achieving this?
Did anyone end up with one of these and if so what are your opinions of it?

We set off today south bound toward the Northern Gunshot Bypass track, which led us onto the Old Tele Track again, we went north to have a look at Cockatoo Creek, before turning...
All good things must come to an end!
It was time for us to head south, the Germans were running out of money and needed work, and we had other adventures awaiting us. We all said our goodbyes,...

We had planned to meet the remainder of the group out at Muttee Head the following day for a few days camping. It really is a beautiful place. Went out a few times in the boat...

Later we headed over towards Bamaga airport to checkout the WWII plane wrecks in the area. It's surprising how good of condition they still are in despite the years of harsh conditions.

We decided to head over to Seisia for a couple of nights in the caravan park with Pete & family. We had a fish off the jetty after catching a bucket load of live bait by jigging...
Thanks. The cross country combined with the tune up is great. Was considering DIY but by the time you buy a good quality core, quality silicone elbows, good fan, design and make a bracket, bonnet...
The next day I took the opportunity of a bit of free time to adjust the wheel bearings on the camper and the Patrol. The parts for the leaking water tank arrived also which made for a quick fix.
We...

So that's pretty much what we did, quick photo at the start of the Old Tele at Bramwell Junction and went for a dip at Fruit Bat Falls.

Leaving the next day was a bit delayed as we learnt that Weipa was the last of what is called cheap grog, and the bottle shop didn't open until 10am. So we done some groceries, stocked up on some...
We checked into Weipa Caravan Park & Camping Ground for a few days. It was noticeably hotter here on the West Coast of The Cape then the East Coast. We made full use of the pool, despite it being...
As if the DIY air box wasn't enough inspiration to build, you go and throw in the DIY panbrake too! Thanks for the efforts of the writeup! You inspired me.
Beat me to it

Gee thanks guys. I think I will enter some.
Yep one of my favourites, we were a little croc shy, hence the distance from the waters edge lol

The leak from the water tank was a little worse than I thought. Overnight we lost all the water in the camper trailer tank. Lucky we had some drinking water in the Patrol but not...
