Body and paint look good Inc. Nice pick up - should go for a long time with those low clicks.

it's a bit untidy in places and needs a lot of little things done get it up to scratch.
just getting the bottom tailgate to open would be a nice start :p
bonnet and roof are pretty sad...

Runs very nice, seats are clean and without damage.
Paint condition ............:(
It is nice to go back to a RRC after having one before and found how much better it is for us than our old 1998 Tdi300 Disco.

In the front mine is using these on the original V8 chassis mounts with brackets to the engine. But the angle on these isn't ideal for the weight of the Isuzu or the vibration directions of a 4 cyl. So I plan to remake them at about 50 degrees from vertical (40 degrees from Horizontal) while still using the same AV mounts.
And just get yourself a factory T motor, much quieter/smoother :)
Nice looking project :cool:
