    Thanks - will see if I can mock that up, see what each looks like. Then I have to work out what sort of bar to build to hold them on - there’s nothing to attach to currently at the front of the vehicle.

    If they wernt so big I was gonna say near the mirrors like old cop spotlights, they may get in your face though depending how you go about it. Or S1 style behind the grille if there's roomGav's 101.

    Yeah, they are big suckers. No way they’d fit behind the grille, and I can’t find another spot I’m happy with, so they’ll go on the shelf for the time being I think.

    I think the only way to make room for them would be on a bull bar - Which I’ve been mulling over for some time, but until I decide if and how I do that, I may have to find another use for them.

    Nice thought but I don't think the canvas top would hold them up...

    So, big plans are afoot for Chucky, which will start this weekend. I'm halfway through cleaning the garage up and I'll soon have enough room in it not just to park a vehicle - the Jag fits in there no dramas now, but is a squeeze down each side - but to work on one too out of the weather.

    Chucky will be getting stripped on the weekend of canvas, sticks, roll bar and windscreen so he can take up residence in there for a few months. Deals are happening in the background and things coming along well. I plan on taking him on a large trip I'm doing mid next year, so now's the time to start prepping for this. A full camping setup will be built for the back, but mechanically, while sound and ok for what I currently do, I have a lot of work which is long overdue on him. He towed my van to Corowa and back no dramas, although the steering is really getting bad...

    The exhaust is shot, so needs a new one front to back, also some other goodies should be in the garage by next week. Things to make it stop and steer better. Gearbox also has to come out (sending the spare I have away for a check and some work shortly) and I'm going to finally get the winch running on it while I'm at it.

    Did think about buying another vehicle for this trip, but by the time I'm done here, I won't have the dollars for that so I better get this right huh...?

    Stay tuned, more details when I have some pics to show

    Thanks. Good to see you back here again. Engine stays as is - it runs fine and is adequate for my needs. Disc brakes - yes, power steering - yes. 👍
