Well, my truck 'toby' is going to get some long awaited TLC, since I've got money coming in now I can actually get things and fit it, I happen to know I'm getting an angle grinder for my birthday tomorrow

so will be able to sort a the rust spots, also I now have access to a pit so can finally change the dead starter and fit a performance down pipe hehe

Cheers, I got an angle grinder and some cash, gonna get a starter motor then shocks, I want to get a body lift but I'm now allowed

also make an exhaust.

don't bother with a body lift unless your getting big tyres. Better spending the money on some tyres that fit standard height that are better offroad. Like all terrains or some all-round mud tyres with road manners like KL71s, STTs etc

Can be picked up pretty cheap 2nd hand.
