Hi from down under

[Sharky]

Gday my name is Steve, I'm from Victoria Australia. I just found your site and look forward to chatting. I drive a 93 RV 80 series that has a few things done to it.

Welcome to the forum Steve, would be good if you can put a pic of your truck on here, we like pics and if you add your location to your profile we can have another dot on the map and see where you are

Good to have you along - do you inhabit Offroad 80's at all??

Cheers

Hi Steve, just seen your pics on the other thread, nice 80, same colour as mine but in much better condition

 

[Sharky]

Thanks Cossack, mine looks good in pics but is probably not better it has the clearcoat starting to go a bit funny on the bonnet so looks a bit ordinary. It has done a fair bit of offroading by its previous owner, a few scratches etc but in general its not too bad.

Mine doesn't look too bad from a distance (about a mile ) Check out this thread Steve;

it's all repaired now using s/hand parts, but it is still a bit 'cosmetically challenged', I pretty sure there isn't one panel without a dent or nasty scratches from green laning.
