Like Newquay, done Mousehole Portleven Lands end etc but Tintagel and surrounding area is our favorite, many happy hols there as a child and an adult, I remember when you could tell where you were in the country by the accent of the locals, sadly disappearing now, Rick

Thanks Barrbeast
I’m a massive fan of the 4.2 Y60! I thought I was nearly there, however after becoming a member and reading up on the Nads conversion, and Jay666d’s build I’ve been inspired to carry on just a little further |

Morning Ross
We were in Mullion just last weekend for my birthday. I could well be your nearest Patrol owning Neighbour. Great project vehicle by the way!! I’m interested in your fuel tank guard too. Davey |

Morning Davey,
That’s a nice looking truck yourself! My fiancé is from the Lizard peninsular, and we both went to mullion school, nice area. As you asked, I’ll give you first refusal on the guard. It’s currently up at Devon4x4 along with my original tank, I’ll try to pick it up in the next couple of weeks and get you some pics. Kind regards. Ross |
