Before the truck porn begins most of you will be thinking "What about the project truck???" - Don't worry I'll still be sticking with the Lexus build - this is something to get me out there in the mean time.

Nibby, I wish someone had told me about this 'buying a completed truck' thing about 12 months ago. Could have saved a heap of time pissing around and has already worked out cheaper
Don't worry, I still love you man (like a brother from another mother).
Really going to take a bit of getting used to driving this truck but I'm looking forward to getting in some practice following the guys around at the Laurie Sanson trials this weekend.

Re: 350 Chevy V8 - FJ40 (MNC's new baby)

you will end up breaking it before you figure out how to drive it
ohh and do the right thing and slap a set of longfields in it now before you blow a cv
cheaper in the long run
