Nice old bricky in Australia

I know this truck is probably not IDI powered, although I couldn't find the owner to check it out better, but I figured you all would enjoy this machine, especially the custom hardwood bed!

I'm planning to build my own bed as mine is pretty well shredded underneath and I'm sick of the wimpy steel rusting out. Outback Aussies sure know how to build nice utility beds... good inspiration.

Hope you enjoy...







Anyone spot what's wrong in this last photo?

I appreciate the hardwood, it also isn't for me as need tough and muddy, and clean and decorative are things I don't associate with my truck.

It would definitely be a good show piece over here... just to get the look on peoples faces when they hop in the passenger seat and there's a steering wheel!

I've been here a year and I still go on autopilot and hop into my car and realize i'm in the passenger seat... get good looks for that! I'll go home in a month and probably do the same thing to my IDI when I get home...
