G'day Eric,
Just a short distance from you is Mount Coramba and the Morbid Trail.
Call into Coffs Harbour TJM and see Kevin Smith from Coffs 4WD Tours. Tell him Paul from this forum told you to call for advice where play and visit.
Kevin has produced a book titled Coffs Coast 4WD Destinations. Compulsive reading if you intend playing around this beautiful location! Coast about $30.00. Mention me to either Kevin or Mark to see if they will give you a discount/increase on the book! Also speak to Mark the owner of TJM, he too has a mountain of local Knowledge off the area!
PS, Keep an eye out for Kevin s camping articles of the Mid/North coast of NSW. Great reading, packed with heaps of info.
Regards,
Paul (RLI)
The halls been rented the bands been paid, time to see you dance!
Hi Paul,
Yes know Kev have met him a few times and bought some dvds etc off him, very nice guy indeed! I've already got the booklet he made upvery fine article, I went with my father-in-law and found the spot of the old nana village with his map.
Have been to the top of mount coramba, We did rover trail in my jeep, only 1 spot near the start at Gaudrons road did I need to get winched up as I only had some mild a/t's and couldn't get up the step.
Itching to get the patrol out soon and go for a wander!
Regards,
Eric.
Got the bar on over the weekend, Came up alright for a cheapy, Needs another good polish when I can find the buffing pad
Now to find a winch cradle
Ok so finally got to do a bit of wheelin' today!
Drove up to check out Station Creek and Pebbly Beach, unfortunately the tide was too high and Pebbly beach was a no go, so drove on the beach went and checked out Station Creek camp grounds then headed back to Arrawarra headland for lunch. Heres a couple of pics and one of the in-laws car as well.
headed out on the dunes
Bit of an update:
Since purchasing the car I've attended a bit to the rust in the rear door area, at the moment I've got it primered until I can decide the best way to treat it so it doesn't return, Also cut a piece of board I had in my garage to suit as the floor for my small drawers that I will be knocking up.
Also ran power for my 3way in the rear, solid power lines with a relay and switches up front, installed a 2nd hand uhf and aerial onto the bullbar, installed some indicators for the bullbar that I sourced off a member.
Boost gauge is temporarily installed awaiting arrival of gauge cup to permanently install it.
Heres some piccies!
Before Rust, Removing Rust, Primered, Power cabling in rear, With Cargo Barrier in, indicators, power setup under bonnet, First attempted Camping expedition to Scott's Head (Next day got washed out)
