New Arrival- Big Blue

[jims-terrano]

Hi Guys and may I introduce Big Blue the replacement truck for my wife. It's a young 54 plate 3litre with Nissan FSH. She's got a few bits and pieces to sort but I paid the right price for it. Main thing is the tin worm has passed this one by without stopping for a munch. A great MOT history too and boy does it go well!!!

Will sort a better photo tomorrow.

nice one, the 3.0 sure is fun.

does 54 plate get you 3 point belt in middle middle?

 

[jims-terrano]

Yeah 3 point belt in the middle and a manual too. Like I say there are a few bits and bobs to sort out. I'm knackered now so better pics tomorrow.

[micken]

You'll love it, that looks pretty much the same spec and colour as mine. Difference being mine is auto.

Awesome Jim, I look forward to some more pics :thumb2 do you want me to make you some rock sliders when I do mine? :naughty

Mmmm, that sounds interesting, I would be tempted if you were thinking about a job lot. :naughty

Well done Jim, looking forward to the better pics, but great machine......3ltr SVE lovely.......and nothing at all wrong with autos by the way.......in no way gay.......remember that I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay.........:augie

 

[jims-terrano]

Wifes had her first drive in it and it's also the first manual since the accident at begining of December, ok February she started driving but has only driven my project truck which is auto. So far although it's nice she prefers a automatic.

For over forty years of driving I was very tongue in cheek about auto's but the T2 has now swayed my mind. I have a Volvo V70 D5 manual and would be interested in driving one with geartronic for comparison.

Funny you should mention the lumberjack song. On Sunday we had my parents over for a meal and my daughters were going through some old videos they made around the house when they were kids. In one of them I burst into that song. :lol:lol

It will be a little while but when they're on I'll be posting some pics up. I will have all measurements when I've finished so could make more, they will be pretty heavy duty though and certainly not to everyones taste :naughty

Okay so you are a Lumberjack the only on I have ever heard of but not met was married to a young gal named Moya who used to live in Luton but moved to Chester !!

If that is you am going to need therapy.lol
