Thread: This morning....

Looks good even if it does look cold! :-)

Yep, it was fairly "fresh" alright! The LR88 had a recent chassis up rebuild. The chassis is a galvanised one and the bulk head was also replaced. I was down doing a "recce" and collecting driftwood for a future night out under the stars, The driftwood was stacked up above the high tideline so that it will be dried out when I need it. I like driftwood on a fire as it smells different and it seems to spark more, probably due to the salt content.
It's less than a ten minute drive from home, so if I forget something I need for my night out I can come home for it.

You've done a good job it looks the ducks nuts is
It a short wheel (88) base three seater or an 88 station wagon?

I don't mind the colour and I quite like the headlight protection

I have just got home from work and it's 330 in the morning and was about 9? outside and I'm freezing my arse off ! I don't think I could live in a cold climate full time !

For firewood when we can we go to Mallee stumps burn long and hard and have some but in colour in them not sure why

It's seven seats and the colour is "Limestone". She was bronze green and limestone but I opted for all over limestone when she was rebuilt. It has been zero centigrade or below over here at night so I'll wait a bit before the nights under the stars start!
Here are some photos of the LR88 before the rebuild. It's a 2.25 diesel and it has the original engine, gearbox and clutch. It is fitted with a ROCKY MOUNTAIN OVERDRIVE and has done just over 85,000 miles in 34 years.
Have a nice night!

Here are some photos before the LR fell out of use.

Nice looking rig Spud, I started my 4x4 life in a shorty ute, she was awesome to drive, and thinking I might have to get another sometime soon.
