Loved your Vit on difflock, especially the bellhousing. Amazing work. As for evolving over time - I always say that there's no such thing as a "finished" truck!
Pics please!

Re: new member saying hello
hi, its basically steel willys inspired/replica body on an sj chassis, 410 transfer with jimny axles coils arms engine and box, 235 75 muds on. it started of with Suzuki alto engine, vitara box with another of my bell housings with the transfer box removed, sj410 transfer box. ive had loads of legal issues with it as it turned out there was a clone of the base 410 I used, this took years (litarally) to sort out, ended up 3 police forces involved, and finally having to submit a built up vehicle report submitting serial numbers, receipts to get a log book.
just trying to work out how to post pics, I can splat metal together ok, but computer stuff is harder, any one point me in the right direction?
