Hello Everyone,
joined up to speak to people about building a cape truck, as circumstances have changed in my life and need to find something to do with my time. Currently live in the UK but am planning a trip to the Cape in 2020 so need to find a vehicle and some setups to get inspiration from.

Well, might want to start your build with a larger tank upgrade, as it's a long drive from UK to Cape !
Welcome to the forum.
Hello Dave , long drive from the UK to OZ mate , by the time you get here it will mostly be bitumen the way there going up there so I'm told .
I'll kick it off by saying mud tyres , snorkel and winch , are you going to do the build here or in the U.K ?
G'day Dale welcome aboard mate, gotta friendly mob here fulla great info and advice
Hi GQ
build will be done in Townsville, one of my mates up here has space for me to leave the car and work on.
Not Clive Palmer , I hear he has got a big shed there doing nothing .
You need to tell us a bit more , and have you a Nissan model in mind etc .
Welcome to the forum mate.
Welcome aboard mate and feel free to ask any questions.
