Just saw this on another forum, if you guys could keep your eyes out, it would stand out Im thinking.......... :evil:

Hi Everyone.

Just had a bit of bad luck this weekend, was out tramping on the
westcoast up the Croesus track out the back of blackball up behind
greymouth and someone decided that they needed my truck more than me,
it's pretty distinctive so thought I might get you to keep an eye out
for it maybe if you could try and get it out to your clubs. Heres
what it is.

Cheers guys, we found my truck, it's a bit worse for wear. My tyres, winch, stereo, recovery gear, and a bunch of other stuff have all gone, the interor is pretty messed up to, so I might be looking for a new truck to put all my drive train into. Anyone know of a 90 or 110 with a good body forsale? running gear and engine is'nt a problem, all my disco stuff should bolt straight in.

Cheers

If I had more room, I would quite like something like that to drop a 3.9 into 8)

Yeah that'd be cool. I thought my engine, gearbox, axles and a set of 255's on it would make a cool little truck. Just a bit concerned about the rust, especially since I can't really go and view it.

You don't work for Electronet by any chance Mike?

I know where there was a 110 for sale in Outram, good con, low k's for under $4k. Can see if it is still available if you like. What year were you after? (don't know much about them)

Yeah Dave, thats me. How are the 33's goin? Yeah I'd be interested if ya could find out. Not really after a specific year or km's just looking for a tidy rust free truck to put my engine and running gear in. Would be awesome if ya could find out though.

There was a red 110 on trademe a while ago with a warn 8274 on the front of it, for about $6-7k that I'm trying to track down but can't seem to find it in the expired listings, any one know who owns it or any thing about it?
