On my way home from Waterton Lakes National Park, I noticed a bunch of old vehicles in a farmers field, and as always I started looking if there were any cool vehicles in there that I could get my hands on.
At the end of the row I was pretty happy to recognize an FSJ, and after knocking on a couple of country doors, and a few phone calls I got a hold of the owner of the field. We arranged a time to take a look at his stash, and he happily told me I could have the GW as well as some heavy duty diffs and some other assorted goodies.
As luck would have it the only thing wrong with the vehicle when he parked it there was that it was costing him too much to fuel - ring a bell to anyone? :rolleyes: The keys were still in the ignition, and it had the tilt steering that I am / was in the process of looking for.
Long story short its a good day, and there might be some parts available if people need something from it OR a new project for me once the Cummins is finished.
enjoy the picture
