Helped marshal a triathlon on Saturday - then cleaned up the mess builders left putting up a storage mezzanine and pushing out a wall in my shed for my work bench



almost good enough to sleep in

Started my Hilux , then shut it off again as no exhaust

Spent the day in the shed working on the hilux. got all the mounts for the rear mounted radiator pipes made up. had to remove part of the exhaust to drill holes, now i just have to take it all back out to paint (exhaust and coolant pipes 0

Watched Taupo Winch challenge on Saturday. Then went on a club run today with Hawkes Bay club, off the Napier - Taupo road and managed to loose the snorkel hat and pull the snorkel out a few cm. Great trip tho.

Shame about the conversion to a safari Kev, all your surf needed was a solid axle
We spent the weekend in westport Richard but were the only Toyota there, except for Flag and all I can say is some very heavy Nissans stuck everywhere, will be definately sticking to the hilux

Yeap, was good fun. Had no idea what it was called but one of the fellas from Rotorua club told me it was on so i just went down for a play. Not real challenging when you've got diff locks but there's a few hairy bits. And yea there was a gate where we came in. Great bunch of guys in that Hawkes Bay club, had a ball.

forgot to add james took the fj40,around woodhill , he drove well, if a vitara drove and a chalanger drove that then this 40 going to too

your right he told me it brought it off some guy up there
Hope its a good one Lol

I only had it a couple of weeks, and only put about 70km on it. It drove well, and the guy who bought it was a panel beater I think, so was going to cut out the small rust patches.
Anyway, it's a Safari, you can't go wrong
