    Dave,
    Want to share a container?
    I think for most of what goes wrong with a 101, it's either small enough to post from the UK or can be sourced here.
    You might want an extra set of wheel rims to modify to take a wider, more easily sourced tyre (assuming you would want to keep an original set of rims).
    There is a fellow on this forum who wants a set of 101 axles and rims. You might throw a set in for him.
    There are some chassis part reproductions I can get in the UK which would be handy to have as spares if the chassis starts to rust.
    Also an original winch might be worth getting.

    Could be a goer Mick... I might take awhile to get there though... A few projects to finish and then some unused assets to liquidate. Mrs will be VERY unsympathetic about me purchasing vehicle number 9 without selling at least 2 or 3 of the others! Definitely going to start making UK enquiries though.

    You wanna plan a trip over as a part of it? I'd love a couple of weeks pillaging the dismantlers over there for RR/LR accessories... We could help some mates out and make a bit of coin back here with the right stuff on ebay!
    Hoo-Roo,

    Dave.

    I cannot help thinking that you will do better buying in Aust - 101s come up regularly - some over priced in my view but some priced quite well,

    If Mick stopped buying up 101s there would be a few more available

    I know of an ex-British one in South West Sydney 15K unregistered, I think the owner may barter the price.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    When you've got an itch, you have to scratch.
    How much do you want for yours Garry?

    Be quick Dave.
    I've put another fellow onto it who may have just finished his telephone conversation with Dianne.

    "Oh what a tangled web we weave, When first we practice to deceive" Sir Walter Scott.

    As for the 101, it was running and AFAIK a 12V GS it is under cover. I will get some images when I'm out there either this weekend or next.

    PM me and I'll forward the contact.

    There is an ex RAF 101 for sale in Melbourne - will be a bit expensive but is in top condition. There is/was a Aust Army 101 for sale in Sydney about 6 months ago - runs and registered just needs a bit of TLC. There is a 101 in the upper Hunter valley that may be for sale - I have no details. Two years ago a lhd 101 was purchased in Goulburn for $1500. It has since changed hands for a price unknown and is now in Canberra.

    I regularly see 101s for sale in the 4wd advertising magazines.

    I bought mine through ebay.

    They are there, you just need to keep your ear to the ground and monitor the usual sites.

    If you have your heart set on a Brit 101, go and speak with Anthony Johnson.

    No deceptions.
    Was chatting to AJ on the phone.
    He asked me if I was ready to sell him my 101's yet.
    Of course, I said no.
    Then he asked me if I knew of any for sale.

    That one in Harcourt?
    I have it's image as the wallpaper on my computer at work.
    So it's still for sale then.
