Title: Strange looking or unusual fourbies....
Post by: Tim - Stratford on January 06, 2014, 03:42:29 PM
I couldn't find a specific spot for this so thought I'd throw it in here...

Noticed this one on the way to a My Swag meet on the Cup Weekend but didn't get a photo. It has now turned up for sale on the highway in town so I thought I'd throw it up here where others can post photos of unusual or strange looking fourbies they've seen in their travels.

On one of the 4WDTV facebook posts today there was a FJ55 that was armoured for the Thai army.

nothing out of the ordinary vehicle wise, but not something you see every day either

One of the journalists (I use that term very loosely) from 4wd action a few years ago owned one of those zuk x90's and built it up. I'm pretty sure it is the same one in the photo. They documented it in the mag at the time.

that pic is probably 5  years old at a guess, i snapped it in a shopping centre at Stanthorpe. never saw the build you're referring to in the mag, but interesting to read that's what it maybe was.

Rumpig, I haven't subscribed, bought or read the mag for at least 4 years or so, so I guess it was about 4 or 5 years since I saw the article.  It prob is the same zuk

I knew I had seen it before.  The build was documented in about 2007.

Not a fourbie but pretty unusual these days. It was a very straight ute as well.

A bloke in Armadale WA used to have a HT Holden panel van sitting on a 60 series cruiser chassis and diffs and running a 350 chev V8 and auto gearbox.

He loved his panel van that much and couldn't bear to part with it so made it into a 4by.
