    Cool The Big Gold Bus!!

    Bog stock and no smoking barrels!!!

    2008 GU ST Auto - Cause I am getting lazy in my old age!!
    An absolute shopping trolley from what I can tell, not a mark on it and only travelled a mild 100000K.

    Mods so far:
    Seat covers
    Floor mats
    Dash mat
    3rd row seats removed

    In the very near future:
    Tinting
    Scanguage II
    Catch can
    EGR block
    Snorkel
    Winch bar

    Down the track:
    Loads!! I have spread sheet running to capture all the extras coming up.

    Will keep adding photos as the mods are bolted on!

    Touring and towing first and foremost rusty, plan on getting a nice off road camper to go with it, but I still want it to be able to handle the rougher stuff. Wont be going down the whole crawler path with massive suspension, crawler gears and the like but once she is built up with all the extras and bar work will be def putting in a 4" lift.

    Next on the cards after the above is def a 2" lift, new wheels and tyres.

    Feel a bit like a kid in a candy store owning one of these things, the more research I do the more im like, "need one of those, one of those and oooo def need one of those!!!" Ha ha ha!!
