Those are some great pics, but the two above are way

Venezuela - Brazil - Paraguay - Argentina - Chile - Bolivia - Peru

Wow. Incredible stuff. Stuck in a 3rd floor office, I can assure you that I'm feeling the envy kick in pretty bad right now.

Out in the mojave national preserve somewhere...

We were just there/here for the first time last week! Awesome cacti, tall Joshua trees, reptiles, snakes, etc. And it wasn't raining (like the place we left!).

About to field test my helton hot water exchanger... (notice the two quick connects on the bumper)

I LOVED IT!

How about that flannel.

Nothing special but I like it.

That's a great looking truck and always good to see another Oregonian on the board mate.

Cheers

Looks like that boy's stuck!

How about that flannel.

Were you warm enough?
'Nuff said.


Concur, that Scout is stuck! They seem to do that, particularly when driven by folks like "My Infamous Scout Friend." Just before we broke out the Mega-winch's cable:

I didnt know the 105 could be so basic.
When you say no free wheeling hubs,do you mean they are permanently locked like an old jeep.

Sorry Rosco - missed that. Yup, the white 105 and last two 79 series we purchased all came with no FWH... Just a normal front drive flange like a Defender. Interesting as every other cruiser we have ever had (well, the part time ones anyway) had FWH.

To keep on topic - here's my '78 which is now in a container on a boat heading for Walvis Bay Namibia

:drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: those are about the most perfrect platforms for my dollar right there. I like the Troupy most, but boy I'd LOVE to drive a 5spd 105 with the Turbp Diesel... You lucky basterd

Thanks Dave! The 105 is no longer "mine", but yeah it was a nice vehicle. Unfortunately the 105 never came with the 1HD-FTE which it should have... The only diesel option was the 1HZ. It was the 3rd 105 that I had and the best. I am not too distressed about leaving the 105 as we fly on Sunday to Namibia to (hopefully...) pick up the troopy and start travelling - can't frigging wait. Will keep the forum posted occasionally, as well as 'MUD where the full build and story is:
