hello all, im 18 and from bexley in kent, been offroading for a a year or so now, but was a winch bitch prior to that i drive a soft top sj410
i can't do too many mods to it atm concerning lifting and bigger engines because of my age, but i do have a few projects on the go, mainly into greenlaining and trialing.

thanks scott
got a 1.3 engine with 5 speed gearbox waiting to go in, power steering waiting on the wedge for the steering box, got a winch in a shop being referbished atm, a rollcage which should go on in the next few weeks and thinking of cutting down a set of doors for the trials nothing too serious.
not really done too many mods to it i have bucket seats and harness', winch bumper, wheel spacers, Optima yellow top battery, spotlights and 415/75/15 insa saharas.
but it was on the brink of getting scraped as it had been broken into and vanderlised and managed to get it for a £50 so not too sad

Welcome to the club. £50 is a pure bargain, thought my rot box was good for £150. It looks tidy there now and they look like some reasonable mods planned.

Keep it up!

Jordi

p.s. Just outta curiosity how much is insurance? All i remember is when i was 18 my 1.7 volvo was cheaper than my sj. Oh, and more photos.
