Thanks for the video mate. Chin up though, you looked a bit despondent there at the end. You'll get it done i'm sure. I've been busy in my shed building a scale mock up of what I envision for my mog. I'll post it in the next day or so for you to look at and get some ideas hopefully. I also purchased a good usb power outlet for that socket in the dashboard, thanks for the info. I now have power to my phone and it gives a voltage reading. I have also built my own phone holder which I will include in the next video. Cheers and loving anything mog.
Good luck on next phase of build. I guess there are no ex military FM1 or FM2 style insulated NATO type cabins then in the southern hemisphere at 1/3 the cost of a bespoke box build? I'm now convinced on fitout to use standalone modular units with simplest possible water and electrics. I'd just lash something habitable on the back to get out there on the right side of sixty and evolve the detailing, maybe starting with a salvaged camping trailer / caravan body. BTW you may have some similar anti- bounce strong pedal spring on the clutch, mine fell off there due to wear on some nylon bushes and it all still worked fine afterwards... Self-healing motoring.
Great to see another video Thabo. All the best to you for 2020. Melbourne is not too far away so hopefully you can catch up with your daughter regularly if you keep an eye out for cheap flights :-) Good plan to outsource the big stuff, you'll have faster progress for similar cost in all likelihood. It is the hundreds of little things that add up, so if you are doing those yourself you will still reap the savings.
Happy birthday and new year Like you iam having to pay a company to build my overlander 4x4 lorry as it would take me too long and like you dont have the skills to do all the work
Enjoyed your videos I have a 87 mog and a 85 plan on the same lines as yours

Thanks for that, I think you are right. Should be an interesting year.
Mate check out styromax. They may be able to help you with your design and parts for the build.
Happy birthday and a god new year 👍🏻🙂
Good move with getting the professionals to do the heavy lifting. You can still Potter on the small stuff
Look for a used truck body on the internet like a thermax with doors already will cost you $4k or so. Cheers
Exacly what iv done. Mine was 4k in New Zealand
Happy birthday and new year
