Cairns represent! Which part you from? Where you located now?
More Motivation;
I love everything about this Ute. SO close to perfect except for the fitment.
I wasnt from cairns, I lived in innisfail! until a few years ago and moved down to brisbane.

Thanks man, you wouldn't call it beautiful if you saw it up close. Or heard it. Or rode in it.
I know of 2 trucks in Cairns that I routinely froth over (Cromie's drift deo (RIP) and BBZ's aluminium canitlevered lux). There is almost nothing cool in my town, so be grateful for what you have haha. I'll see you at WTC '14.

Here's the facebook page so you can see what we're about:
Seems like you're taking inspiration from all the right places for your build too
Theirs quite a few minitrucks up here all of which I dont like a single bit. SO its my goal to give all the other truckers something to froth over. :P

Originally posted by AccordEuro View PostAnther cairns dude, epic. I'm from up that way, know the feel with the weather and climate as well as rust everywhere.
Anyway, dont go steelies. get something cool like those hundred spokes or something for it rather than just boring old steelies otherwise it becomes the same as every other lowlux build to date.
I have never seen a 'cool' hilux until you posted those photos from the jap one, almost makes me want to go buy one ha. This could turn out epic, please make it do so!

MOTIVATION Pictures! love this style but ill probably end up wider.
Originally posted by DirtyHarry View PostSo ive found the most perfect set of wheels I could ever want for this build, BUT! sadly i cannot afford them. which saddens me greatly.
And if I dont end up getting those ill probably get some nice Diamond Racing PRO Series Wheels which are equally as nice in my opinion.

I can't wait to see what you do with this one, i'll be subbing
Your XF is fucking perfect. im flying VIC ways early next year. so ill shoot you a message then cause id love to go for a spin in it or even witness it in the flesh. I had a VT Commodore Stance Start Build, wish that was finished.Last edited by DirtyHarry; 12-06-2013, 05:33 AM.

I want to mod the exhaust so it sits above of all the axils etc... for legal ride height and no scraping.
