G'day Norm,
Hi Gadge,
Now that is a Mans Mans Truck, I'm guessing that would be a life keeper
Well, sort of.
The trayback body won't be going back on the road, as the chassis on that has 'issues' from past repair work, before I owned it.
I had to let the rego lapse a few years back now; and it'd never pass a roadworthy to current Vic standards.
So when I can physically manage it, I'll borrow an engine crane and pull the engine and trans/transfer out as a unit, and park that in my garage - where the vehicle is currently located. A bike will have to go, to make room for that, and I've earmarked one of the four current shed denizens, a solo K2 Honda 750 Four.
The rest of the 45 can go off to the local 4WD wreckers, as there's nothing very special about any of it. Standard diffs, prop shafts etc. Well maintained and in decent nick, though. I'll just keep the 'zorst, as that's a custom bent setup, naturally.
I'm selling off my kit of Landcruiser front end 'Special Service Tools', via another forum I frequent; as even if I set this driveline up in another vehicle [maybe a 45/47 Series Cruiser Troop Carrier], I won't be doing any of the heavy service work myself. Beyond re-packing wheel bearings, at any rate.
