After the shock I had to day : FOG CLICKY regarding getting me other truck on the road I need some inspiration from you guys.
I've got 4 Options :
1. Be a total SPANNER, and spend lots of money and get it on the road.
2. Break it up for Spares.
3. Get all jobs done, put 12 months MOT on it and sell it straight on.
4. Keep it, completly remove the luxury interior ( ) right down to the shell, remove rear roof section, convert into a pick up, Mod it to S*it with lift, snorkle, tyres etc, buy a flat bed trailer, and just use it for offroading pay and play days only.

Defo keep it and do the mods at your own pace. Think of the money saved on fuel with the gas con on it.
Maybe turn it into a good road car and use the one youve already modded solely off road.

well i have said get it on the road, afterall thats what you got her for, and it would be nice to drive to a playground and then drive home,
but thats just my opinion, i have just spent the last 12 months puting my calibra back together, and the things that i have done its going to cost a fair bit to insure, but it will be worth it in the end,
flying solo, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Have now decided to turn the other truck into a serious off roader so ........
PROJECT FUDDY MUCKER "II" will be starting soon.
I'm going to start a post on the forum and do a weekly "BLOG" of progress with piccys and how to's. From Start to the first day I go off roading in her.
No expense will be spared and hopefully all changes and modifications will be done to a high spec. I might be calling on a few of our talented and skilled members for advice and help.
I'm hoping for a budget of no more than £500, which includes all componants, metel work, suspension and accessories.
I'm aiming for April to go the first off road Pay & Play Day.
So it looks like another "FUDDY" organised day out looming next year.
