I still have to manufacture the rear seat mounts for the rear as well as the fold down table thats mounted on the rear door.

So if any one could help with tech info aka photos drawing etc would be much appreciated.

Also wondering does any one know the vehicles CES/packing list of what goes where in the back... if such a thing exisits?

Cheers!
Phil...

Default Lastest pic's of my C8A HUW

Hi just a photo of my HUW on the way back from my aborted trip to Corowa 2011
The old C8A had one or 2 hick-ups but it was as issue with the suport vehicle that was the ultimate stop to the trip.
Anyway just a "Corowa too far"
Photo is at Goondawindi on the way back. Would sit happily on 85~90 kph and thats clocked on a GPS and returned better than 10 MPG. So the old beast ended up doing only 1200 klm instead of the planned 3000 klm.

Shame you missed out Phil, maybe you should have used the Humber as the support vehicle?
Always next year.
Rich.

Hi there Richard!

Yerr well I would of loved to have taken the Humber down but its still out of action. So the new C8A HUW was the next best option. But in the end it was not the old that let us down it was sort of the new. Well realy can't blame the jeep as it was not its fauls i decided to run into a short post damageing the front end

Phil...
