View Full Version : The briggie awards 2010
as the title suggests , nominations are invited for our first category of the inaugral briggie awards . this is purely a name only award although if a annual meet is forthcoming perhaps a cup or shield could be made ,
our first category is for " best modified truck "

I have customised indicators, which mean i can only turn left :doh
As you came up with the idea...
Why don't you do a new thread with a POLL & you choose say 10 trucks.?
Use this thread for the time being to let members post pics & spec.?
I have customised indicators, which mean i can only turn left :doh

think the voting options are quite limited, to be fair. modded trucks are not everyone's cup of tea
but of the modded trucks. red is best and really cant be arsed to list all the mods, nor compete for a win.
i built mine for me , not for prizes . i love mine to bits and its the only car/truck ive owned that feels part of me .
like an old carpenter and his hammer.
it does what i want it to do , and go any place i want to go. if it fails on something or wont get to what i need to do i'll change things so it will
i like pete's too. and im sure he feels the same about his. but i guess we all do

I'd love to do all sorts of mods to mine but it is at the end of the day the family car. Used everyday for work, does a lot of towing both at work and for holidays so priorities are safety and reliability.
I've done only subtle mods since I bought it in 1999 to help with ground clearance ,mud tyres and window tints for the kids when they were younger.
It's fitted with DAB,DVDs and and a multichanger which have kept everyone happy for the 125000 miles that we have travelled in it.
So nothing to vote for but to me it's the best car in the world ;O)
