That's mine ... TD42 Shorty called " No.6"

It will need a lift, new tyres and a winch. That's all. I'll keep you informed.

nice!, are they wipers on the headlights i see?

 

[oldcarsmaniac]

The wipers are working great and they were very useful on road on a rainy weather.

In the mud I don't think they'll do something right! :idiot:

Anyway, this week the car will recieve some Interco LTB tyres, I hope ...

Will post pics when they'll be mounted.

Love the variety of tyre's its running at the moment. Just trying a bit of everything

 

[oldcarsmaniac]

@vanderbro - I tryed to stay prepared for every kind of terrain! )

They are 5 type of tyres on the cat at the moment (including spare) and 3 type of rims ... It must sit on something, isn't it?
After few days, I hope I can post some more pics ...
If I can't buy Interco, I think I'll put some Silverstone on. In that case, I'll choose 35/11.50/15.
On my ex "No.5", they were great! This is the proove :

So ... the tyres are fitted and I took the rig for a ride, just to observe how much should I cut the fenders and how high sould I rise the suspension.

What do you think about +2 inch suspension lift & a 2 inch bodylift ?

[Wish I Had Coils]

I'm not a fan of tro spoke mags but they look phat on your ride.

Intresting place for the aerial.

 

[oldcarsmaniac]

Hi

Thanx again!

The rims are produced by Compomotive Wheels. They arrived in my yard on a Toyota Bundera (LJ70). The specifications are : 10Jx15 ET-51.

I don't like them very much, but they are very light and the TSL LTB's are sitting very comfortable on them ...

Speaking about the pictures , let me post some more... I had a short trip around my house today ...

 

[oldcarsmaniac]

And we are preparing for cutting the rear!
