Wow, that looks very clean. Great looking truck.

Yes, the 5-spd is the way to go. Feels totally different from the slushbox and really makes the truck peppy. Someone will love this non-molested truck.

SD, cloth, 5-spd, no sunroof, clean, ExPo white... looks like Scott Brady's when he started his build. Pricey, but might be worth it to someone.

Can't post pics, as it's a buddies project, and he should get the honor. He had a mishap in Moab 7 years ago, and started this build 5 years ago- it is also topless with full cage- extremely well done.
The Disco SD is a sweet one- check it out too Jonathon. You need to see Greg's D-II...

Greg's done a great job with that...

Where can we see this DII on Portals?

This truck didn't happen to go to MAR last year, did it? I seem to remember a green topless DI with a full cage...didn't get to look close enough to see if it was a 5spd, but it was a really sweet ride from what I could see.
:victory:

I've seen this rig. It's pretty clean. I wouldn't pay $6000 for it, but Land Rovers seem to go for a premium here in Boise.

Greg is very meticulus, and you need to see it in person to really appreciate the proportion- low and wide with tons of clearance.

OK... that.... us ........AWESOME!!!! It looks so MEAN from the front oo eh. What I really like is how low it is. Don't see many rigs that are 6in WIDER then they are tall unless they're pro built buggies eh.

Cheers

the snorkle is the highest point, a good couple inches higher than the highest point on the cage, and it fits in a standard 7' garage door with tires fully inflated!! But barely fits on a car hauler trailer for width- in fact, same width as my PW. It is truely 'low', and like 18" ground clearence. It has come quite a ways since we cut the roof off several years ago...
