haha I love the overlander conversions, big fan :) there's just something so awesome about a normal looking car that's been massively modified for offroad (hence my love for jacked up subarus).
Nicest overlander I've seen driving around Perth was a V8 VP wagon one.

^ Or you could look at it, being something extra to keep the car going, to keep it in good nick by not damaging the underbody... Like a stone guard on the bonnet hehe.

Some mates used to run this torrie at mudbash, Not sure how it got it's height.

It had 308 auto fiddle brakes and a diff from a small truck with dualies.

My first car was an LC torry. Always thought it would look awesome lifted as a 4wd, but it never eventuated - but it did go off the road and rolled when a mate was driving it :???:

And thats how I came to subies... (but still have a few holdens in "hiding" that may reappear sometime in the future).
