thanks TBM,
i want the old truck.

anyways back to the mega adventure,what an eye opener it was,i could spend a month there and wouldn,t even see half the gear that was here,unbeleivable.

and here we go,

i,ll start to add pics for you to share,i,ll start outside with the classic steel,then inside the biggest mother frocker shed i ever saw,FULL to the roof with the best gear on the planet,and unfortunatly my phone camera was playing up,but i got a heap of good pics anyways.

You have to rescue those 2 door shells.

They would be worth a mint, relatively speaking.
