Well I went for a bit of a drive and came home with this poor old girl:



It runs a Holden 308 V8, Toyota Dyna gearbox with Mark's 4wd adapters, and a Land Cruiser diff. Unfortunately it's been sitting for a long time and the weather has got the better of it :(

Having said that, it has a few dual-cab-specfic interior parts I need and a friend has called shotgun on the engine and gearbox. I'll probably post some bits for sale on here in case someone wants anything.

I must say though, I don't really want to tow something this big again. My suspicians of the engine not being too happy were confirmed when I had to drop it down to first gear for some hills. And I boiled my brakwle fluid going down a hill :p still, we made it home in one piece.
