G60 pop-top in TAS

Post by Johnny Roadkill »

Hi all,

just saw this on Gumtree - not to my tastes, but an unusual take on the G60 nonetheless.

Definitely interesting. Everything from the cab back looks to be custom built. :think:

I'm tempted to go and take a look at this. I know the guys who have it.

I've been trying to find some photos of factory lwb wagons that I've seen on the net in the past - but I can't find them. Just wanted to compare. It's plated as a LWB (2800mm) but I don't know about that body.

It'd be a cool camper - but you'd drag that ass on everything offroad :lol:

Rats - I figured 2 G60's had been combined into one to make this contraption, but if the chassis is a 94Z then probably 3 G60's have been sacrificed to create it. :cry:

Yeah, if that camper were on the 3m+ wheelbase 6x4 G60 chassis one of you guys found last year it might be less goofy. Good to hear from you jawapro, hope all is good.

Indeed I do! I'll PM you my number.

The moulds are currently living with my G60s at my folks place in Exeter (north of Launceston) but I can bring them back to Devonport if that suits you better.
