« on: July 19, 2012, 09:16:22 PM »
Hello, finally made my way over here. Heres some pics of my workshop. Bought it off Master Chief a little while ago. It was named Warthog back then and still is. Havent done to much besides getting the rear canopy and canvas and finding an antenna to match the mount that was on the bullbar. I may have a set of retrimmed seats coming but thats not confirmed yet....

Day i picked it up

Ive decided its time to sell Warthog. I dont really want to, but my wife passed away a few months ago and things have changed a fair bit. I cant justify having it just sitting here not being used and i could use the money paying off other things. So if you know anyone thats after a good workshop land rover, let then know about this one.
Thanks

Well Warthog left this morning. The new owner flew over from Perth and is now driving it back to Albany. I've put him onto this website so he may join up in the near future.
