"I built this cool snorkel but want to put doors on the 40 now (to keep the water out of the cab) and the snorkel is in the way!"

ar saaw new wing ping dang a ramma lamma ding dong with sweet and sour..

"... so figured out if I mod it a little, cut a new hole through the firewall, and ran the snorkel inside the roll cage I'll be able to fit doors again. Its all sweet now. Hooray!"

[niblik]

[niblik]

got the roof on and had to rivet the fibreglass back onto part of the steel framing.. also got both doors on to keep 95% of the wind/weather out.. workin windows and all.. heh..


being a rear mounted radiator and having a full roof can be a bit of an issue, so made up a clear pespex window and some alloy ducting to funnel outside air into radiator through the std window opening..

exterior...


interior...

[tomsoffroad]

Far-lash ow Its gonna get cosy in there bro.

[niblik]

only gonna have a 37 blockin where the rear barn doors used to be so hopefully it'll remain a nice wee temperate zone for my asian orientated arse to reside.. moderate warm airflow around the cab and excess vent rearward.. sorta like rex..

[Jerry]

you could plumb in a small heater core in the front of the cab for additional heat

[niblik]

Am currently lookin into the heated air onto the windscreen options.

Also read standing there gawkin whilst drinking coffee.

[petefj40]

Gunna put chicken wire (or something) in front of that window bud? Might stop SOME snow from falling in.
I recognize that yellow rear shell. Finally putting it to use huh. Good to see.

[Batfastard]

So have been using the fawdy for a while and it's still a fun junker. Thought I'd add a pic of the newly acquired treads.. Bit of flex testin with clearances to check.. 40's on the fawdy...

[zukmeista]

Love the sidewall tread on them comp treps... They look like the ones off a white 70 series that was on trademe?

[Heath]

Dont suppose you still have the original seats gathering dust somewhere?

[DMcCready]

The 40's looks awsome! Hows the running gear holding up?

[niblik]

White 70? Tell me more...

No seats sorry Heath.

Running gears still holding up mint. Chromoly front end is sound as a pound and ARB lockers still actuating nicely. It's all still sweet as really. Woot! Odd really with such a menacing powerhouse engine crankin hardcore horsepower...

[mylux]

such a menacing powerhouse engine crankin hardcore horsepower...

You upgraded from that old 3b with the hairdryer attached then

[skidmark]

Shit that's a cool looking cruiser, If only I had the winning lotto ticket.

[rokhound]

You should buy this CCS. You might even be able to some sort of deal with Nibz to swap the 37's it comes with.........

[kbjj]

Did those 40's come with a spade?

[niblik]

Did those 40's come with a spade?

I do happen to have a solid spade at my place. It's not a bad one.
