K register

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Nice find!

Amazing that they're still made actually, albeit not street legal now.

Technically those aren't a K, they have a different body, there are loads of differences if you look closely. The Farmworker pretty much has a cut down lwb soft top body.

I'd love a KJA, I iust don't think I'd be able to get on with the leg room, I'm not tall but to be comfortable my seat is fully back!

Personally I don't think they are useful as anything but a work truck or an off-road only toy. Yeah they are cool but the normal Lwb is 100x more versatile and there's more load space, especially with a hard top fitted! can't exactly have any passneger seats in the back of a K and as you say the cabs are cramped, especially when you 6'1" :lol: you can sleep in the back of a Lwb as well :thumbup:
