Well, good news. DX grunt won 'Peoples Choice' at the Boyup Brook Country Music
Festival, truck and ute comp! Prize was 3 polo shirts, a Festival Flag and a cooler thermos. I'd love a NP flag for the parade. Will talk later, AB. Lol

Introducing….. DX grunt …..in the flesh, at the Boyup Brook Country Music Festival, Truck and Ute muster competition, 2017

Had the board made up on an ‘A’ frame with same info on both sides. Gotta change it already coz I forgot to add one or two things – and my typo. Lol.

On this occasion, I left my swag at home. The wife is a seamstress and whipped this up a day or so before the event.

And, the proof is in the pudding. Lol. I won the ‘People’s Choice’ section of the competition.

It took a while to get the rig up to scratch and I had started driving about 200ks just before dark. I nearly cried when I saw all the bugs, but a quick touch up in the morning after driving another 200ks made a big difference. Lol.

Take care out there.

Not sure. Everybody, including competitors and people walking past or looking at individual utes, had one vote and chucked their nomination into a plastic tub, and the judges sorted it out.

I heard somebody comment that were about 50-60 more utes than last year. It was very hot, too!

Thanks, 3d.

Cost me about $1800. I didn't want the head rests done, but the guy that did it is excellent at his trade and couldn't handle it, so he chucked them in for nothing. lol. He costed them at about 130 ins of labour. Licensed as a 3 seater, but the passenger seat had extra foam put in it around the shoulder blades and right cheek, to make it more comfortable for the passenger closest to the door. IMO, the '3rd' seat is only big enough for a small child.

Yeah had one of those 1.5 seats in the troopy, as soon as I had some $$$$$
I fitted 2 bucket seats.
Have you thought doing the two bucket conversion and centre console like others have done.
or does this set up suit what you do ??

Will the door cards be similar that would look awesomer, [new word] lol
