Update - 24th June 2005
Just a quick update before the Rhino Rally, have got a sticker front number plate now and removed the old one to aid cooling. Got a new head unit too, a very nice looking sony mp3 player with remote control. Will be great for the beach parties!

Update - 17th June 2005
Not much to say, just that there's a pacet electric fan on its way through the post to be fitted before the Rhino Rally on 26th June. Should be lots of pics on page 4 from that event before the end of the month. Went to the national modified car show near Nottingham with some friends a couple of weekends back. To see pics of the cars go to www.cruisewirral.com and look in the gallery. The samurai got lots of attention, here's a couple of pics from the camping grounds.

Just a muck-about in paint to anticipate what the rig'll look like with the lift:
Impreza bonnet vent?!
Or perhaps just a snorkel...
