Brilliant! Big wheels, maybe black bull bar and you're flying! Love it!

Haha yeah they are cool.

Back from paint this morning. The tail gate needs a little more work - will get round to that later.

 

[micko]

Class.

Fastest turnaround of any painter, ever!

 

[Woodcutter]

Great job!

Did you get a deal done on the big whees/tyres?

Nah he’s decided to sell his Hilux now with wheels & all on it. Will continue to keep an eye out.

 

[j44nty]

Lovely now.
Lucky man

If you fancy a run out some day, you’re welcome to see what the 35’s would be like on that Barry. I’ve a couple of sets of spacers here too to let you see what width of wheel and offset you’d need to get a wheel sitting where you want it in the arch too. Have a full set of rims with 31’s on them, though they look lost in the Hilux arches to be fair.

Class. I love a hilux - I think I prefer it with some sort of canopy on the back though!

As you know, Ciara is working for Toyota if you ever need any bits & bobs picked up and ferried down you you

 

[gav525]

Some turnaround on that Barry, fair play to you! Looks a lot fresher now!

 

[Todd]

Class!

I'd love something like this.

Fuel gauge wasn’t working but a new sender unit came with the sale. This is the only way she’d fit in my garage to get the fuel tank off.

Then I lost my metro plate virginity

And added this to my Santa list

So a bull bar and tow bar will see her living outside then...? Lol

There's a tow bar on her, its resting under my work bench in that pic lol. I won't mind this living outside, some work horse

Spent 4hrs in a Defender 90 with land grabbers yesterday & I'm happy I went with Toyota.. knees against the dashboard the whole time! How the hell does a fully kitted police officer cram themselves into one of them?!

 

[hippyross]

When are you fitting the AA gun?

I drive our 90’s in work ex forestry yellow ones and they are very agricultural with the heavy clutch and nowhere to put your right arm. Useful but so is tractor.
There is plenty of folk on rms gonna have fun in the snow this year.

My defender was great off road but awful on the road. Back was wrecked every time I drove it. Plus it always needed something fixing.
It looked good with the mud tyres. I wouldn’t buy another.

Never mind the artillery Barry, get an outboard strapped on

 

[biffy.2008]

Super work looks great now

 

[BarryPort]

Tailgate on

Bit of a difference

 

[biffy.2008]

Outstanding

 

[Nicky]

Awesome.

It really looks like she skipped leg day sitting on those wee wheels and tiny tyres though...
