That's a nice bit of photoshopping. Maybe the guys in the UK coverting D1's to Forward Controls can take this up as their next venture...

Saw this neat truck today but didn't get to speak with the owner. Anyone know about it?

Yep, I've seen that a few times. It used to be parked outside a place, with an advertising sign in the tray at....at.....at....at.......Curse you, DM!:bat:Quote:

I like the look of the dual cab.

I’m still not sold on how close the guard is to the rear wheel (compare it to front wheel clearance) and how it would affect off-road use. Great concept though!
Was in the main street of Maleny yesterday morning. Looks nice.Quote:

Having said that, if you can form a wheel arch into the rear tray like a well body ute, or lift the tray slightly, I would buy one in a heartbeat if I had the money.
American?
Koala?
