My $2000 110 County......

When I bought it....




And as it is now pretty much......



YouTube - County Crossing MacAlister River

So far it's a 1985 110 County V8 (3.5)
Equipe 4x4 sliders
255/85R16 BFG MT's on flipped disco rims
2 inch spring lift (LRA springs)
Koni shocks
Rear Maxi drive locker
Safari snorkel
Cargo barrier
Winch
Bar

To come.......

Remove air con and revert to vent flaps in firewall
Use compressor as endless air set up
Fit front locker
Get rid of ugly bullbar and replace with a simple tube bar/winch cradle
storage system for rear load space
various other bits and pieces.....

This is a good one Mick. Very interesting way to wash the vehicle
It is converted to dual fuel or it is vacuum your money like hell ?
I agree with the bullbar I like them more with the Equipe bar
All in all very nice rig, thanks to show it to us
Cheers
