Finally!

[Jolly Roger]

Well, after a long wait and jumping through a few hoops with customs, ICBC, etc., I finally got the Mog imported, registered, insured and on the road!

Time for a bit of fun!

:wings:

Nice 1550l and box, heard it from a friend.

Yeah I'm pretty happy with it. Hopefully it will serve me well for years to come.

Very nice! Congratulations.

Let me know next time you are in Victoria...

Yeah, I will for sure . . . just have to save up enough money to pay the crazy tolls that BC Ferries would charge me to ship this over to the Island!

Awesome! I'm jealous. I'd love to have on of those but I have no where to keep one. Did you import that one from the US or somewhere else? I grew up in Chilliwack and miss being able to go out and play at the Fraser.

I imported this directly from Germany as it was the only place I could find one. Yeah, I'm looking forward to taking this down to the Fraser to play! We didn't have anywhere to keep one either . . . so we moved. :sombrero:

What are your plans for it? Offroad toy? Camper build?

We're looking to build a camper and do some travelling. Not sure yet if we can use the existing box or if it's easier to start from scratch.

 

[WxMan]

I wish you the best with it. I hope to follow in your footsteps in a few years. I'll keep my eyes out for your rig next time I'm in Chilliwack.

Well, it will be a few years before we get the camper done and save enough money for the trip. We hope to do central america, south america, Africa, etc. so have a lot of $$$ to save up.

If you are even back in Chilliwack, give me a shout and we can go for a drive and / or a cold beer.

 

[WxMan]

Thanks for the offer. That would be great. I plan to be back "home" (I still refer to Chilliwack as home and I moved away eleven years ago...) in May and would love to meet you and check out the rig. I'll let you know when I know for sure exactly when I will be in town.

Sounds good, just give me a holler closer to the date and we can arrange something.

Yeah, its in really good shape. I bought it sight-unseen so it was a bit of a gamble. However, I'm very pleased with the condition. It's a U1550L/37.
