Just over a year ago i was going to join my local gliding club, but then i bought my 55 and those plans were put on hold, i was out near the club this morning and i thought i'd drop in and show some more interest in joining and whadda ya know there's an old 55 near the hangar that they use as a runabout etc. they told me all the runabout cars they get there are donated and they drive them until they die then they throw them away, so i said if the cruiser ever dies they can give it to me and i explained why, they said they don't really need a 4wd there and it uses too much fuel so it's not really ideal for them and that i could buy it from them at a price that we agree is reasonable.
it is of course rusted in all the usual spots and been patched, it has ambulance doors, the long skinny tail lights, rounded tops on the front doors so those parts aren't much use to me but there's plenty of other good bits there, like the PTO, bonnet and whatever else.
Also i could perhaps use it as a competiton truck if i want to one day do some comps, or use it as a trail rig and cut the roof off etc.
so.... cool huh?
i have a picture of it but it's on my phone still.
Cheers,
Dan.
