1st
safari SWB chassis suspension and diffs, full custom rollcage/tube bodywork, 35x11.5in silverstone extreme tyres, powered by 1ggte out of a supra been converted to supercharger at the moment as the turbos have given up the ghost

2nd
old 1980s hilux, pretty much just a chassis and floor rest in cage, cut rear of chassis off and welded on a 1990s surf coil rear end and made it 300mm shorter, its got some 20yr old 33in armstrong tyres on it which some how still work, powered by a 2.8lt nissan diesel motor which since a service has decided to get real smoky so its not getting repowered by a 1g
