88mph Jimny! Great Scott!

we're seeing some really good photography here, many thanks

look forward to loads of pics

don't forget to put the car slightly to the right of the image, and 1280 x 770 pixels is the ideal size for my desktop :lol:

I'd just like a legal light crazed or not.... Looking like I have to import a Spanish right hand drive from japan from a main dealer.....warning don't get a Spanish jimny and break a headlight !

Thanks. Been into photography for a good few years now.
Planning a day exploring a few lanes tomorrow so should get a few more pictures.

New page, new pictures.

Was out visiting a mate in gateshead, when i saw a decent photo opportunity.

Then just recently, after the post I made about crossing my first ever ford,
I got home to realise that my number plate must be downstream.

So another photo with a flush looking front end.

I have sent away my retention certificate to put my private plate on anyway, so waiting on that turning up!
Enjoy...

Here we go again...

I won a set of original steel wheels on ebay, and went to pick them up... Alnwick here we come!
Made a day of it and had a good trip out and explored a few lanes aswell.

The wheels are in need of a good refurb, so thats a project im going to tackle when it gets warmer.
Also highlighted the fact that the jimny is seriously lacking in load space. Was also babysitting for the day, and it was a bit cramped!

So back onto ebay to buy an aluminium roof rack!
Pretty happy with the fit, mounted directly onto the original roof bars to keep it a bit lower.

Also updated my bulbs, got LED interior and numberplate bulbs, and new halogens in the headlights.
Pictures of those and the wheel refurb coming next!

What's the number for the roof rack?

This is the one i went for - eBay - Roof Rack

Made him an offer he couldnt refuse! :laugh:

Is that roofrack big and what does it look like on the jimny it's a bargain £40!

I'd measure it myself but the dimensions are on the the listing.

Fitted to my jim it overhangs about an inch each side of the rails widthways. Lengthways fits within the rails no problem.

Looks spot on IMO.
And got it for an offer at £36.

Made a start on my steel rims today... Taking alot more work than i thought!
Managed to get back from the rust from the first wheel, need some time to crack on with the rest!

Here is what i am starting with!

Wow just realised how good my rims were to start with not surprised it was hard work

Good work. Did you just use a wire brush?
