Looks like the one the owner of Delta 4wd in Blenheim owned. If it is, Muddy or other local club members might know a bit about it. Can't remember who on here bought it from him originally.

Dead plates, what a shame, I was this close to buying it a year ago..

Hmm dead plates - I am finding out the hard way what this might mean for me.

Pricey - but ultimately worth I hope. Just hope the inspector(s) dont look at it as a 21st century vehicle instead of a 1980 BJ40...

So - whatever happened to Delta 4wd? I have a sticker of theirs lying around from when I bought a snorkel for my old Zuk back in 2004.

OK, I purposefully did not post any comments on this thread incase this happened.....

But looks like I've bought my old truck back

Might need some help from one of the Christchuch guys getting it up to Picton - anyone able to assist?

Cheers, I'm not sure on how I'm getting it home yet but last time I bought it I drove down to Wellywood with a trailer, left car and trailer there and then jumped on the ferry and brought it back. Hopefully I can do the same again this time.

Sweet - Thanks for this offer. Might take you up on that until something else can be arranged...

I dont know what your ex is like but mine is hot and I was said to see her go. If I han't got the other half pregnant at the time I would have never sold her in the first place :wink:
