Title: What a neat beast
Post by: BlackBedford on May 01, 2009, 07:33:58 AM

G'day

I saw a Ford Transit in town the other day and had to have a look.

It is a 1980's van cut down to a dual cab, put on a Nissan Patrol 4wd chassis, running a V8 on dual fuel.
The trailer is a 5th wheeler that was about 12 metres long running transit dual wheels on the tandem axles.

He had a big load, including a Commodore sedan, and was travelling a long distance.

I know it is a Ford but a lot of good ideas there:

G'day

What peeves me is that there was a Turbo Nissan Patrol for sale a couple of weeks ago for $1200 and I couldn't see any use for it. It even had big wheels on it.
