Troopy Build

[Charlie]

Over the next few years I want to explore Australia, renting a 4X4 vehicle for each trip would be too expensive…….. so last trip was Troopy hunting.



Next trip's plan is to drive from Sydney to Perth taking in the sights along the way, once in Perth I get my new roof installed.

Nice!

Then where you going from Perth? Further North to explore The Kimberly's?

 

[Charlie]

Kimberly's and Cape York are on my list

Looking forward to the build!

Amazing machine - I quite fancy getting a roof conversion done on my 75 Troopy in Wales.

You can get the Alu Cab kits from various dealers in the UK

Damp and cold morning at the start of the Great Central Road from Laverton WA to Yulara NT

Think the truck is going to need wash

The following day the sun had came out and dried the road
