Jeepers Delight G’day mate, where I can I stay true to the origin of these awesome trucks, but the most important thing is to use them for what they were designed for and not turn them into a show pony. Cheers
Hey John, you must have seen my old CJ6 painted with Wattyl green late '60's - early '70's around Cairns - Cooktown area, always my favorite color - reckon you must have copied me, hahaha. She looked really good back then using the creb as a shortcut. No roof, rope and chain wrapped around the front bar and a tirfor lying in the back, what memories.
Love ya work roothy! You should make the roof quick release mate. So you can have the top off on sunny days. Or as a quick escape. But should of rust killed the roof before priming it.
JOHN ROOTH thanks for the reply, must be the dodgy NZ internet!! Thanks for the inspiration with your videos, really motivates me to continue with my project!
The magic of the build is not having to pay for anything...
Nice work Roothy..
Nice to see the guard back on the grinder!
Milo 2 is going to be better than ever!
Built not bought! What else needs said. Hi from rocky mountains in USA.
Glad you went the way of the purist and did correct top to color. Hello again from Maryland.

Good man.
Is the quality of beer up to scratch for your work? Are you a mechanic?
G'DAY Roothy, looks like Milo 2 is coming back together nicely, hopefully it's going to be on a track soon.

So why did the Harrop elockers on the rear axle fail?
G'day Steven, turned out to be an issue with the connection plug.
Hi Roothy, another great video! A shame about the distorted audio. Thanks.
Martin Nobbs , just checked the audio mate and all good at our end, might be your device?
Perfect here
JOHN ROOTH thanks for the reply, must be the dodgy NZ internet!! Thanks for the inspiration with your videos, really motivates me to continue with my project!
Milo 2 might need an old school external cage to protect the lid.
Agreed. He has a roof rack..but I wouldn't call it protection and whether he puts it back on is another.
You should get a harness for 4wding
