After buying this car at Christmas, a couple of mates and I have spent a lot of time on it getting to where it is now. It turns 20 in March, so I guess you could say that this revamp is its 20th b'day present.
When I picked it up, it had a roof rack, dobinson 2" lift and an alpine stereo (first 2 pics)
Since buying it, we have added the following:
Ironman bull bar
Tigerz11 grande winch
Lightforce Genisis
GME 4006 antenna with UHF radio
Bushranger flares
Fat Safari Snorkel
Duel battery system running 8mm 2 core flexi to the back
Koni shocks and heavy duty king springs
Tigerz11 Sugar glider awning complete with 3 LED strips (painful to wire up)
Brodit off road ipod & iphone holder
RAM ipad mount
1/2 cargo barrier
Drawer System that we built; 2 drawers, 1 bench, removable L & R panels, Baintech panel & switches
LED's everywhere I could
60ltr enmach water tank
about to have gas ripped out and go back to petrol only
rocksliders by mid year.
Hope you guys enjoy the pics
Cheers, Dave

Looking good mate.....no need for a comp truck I'm enjoying building mine into more of a tough touring rig.....capable of doing 99% of tracks but also capable of a comfy Simmo crossing......plus you get to fit more fun stuff than a stripped out comp rig, amusing as they may be to drive!
Tip tip tip......tap tap tap....
