My Tow Truck

[Tekno Twinky]

Whats this pony gonna pony around ? Darraghs 180 ?

Looks the biz niz ! Very diiferent to anyting iv looked at befor?

[Livewire 78]

darraghs 180 and about 100 of my cars over the next year or so

it wouldnt be that uncommon of a sight in th uk, well the shape of the body isnt anyway, pretty unique to ireland though i would think, had few people say its too high at the front and that but its built for 2 main purposes, to work on bangers on the back and take the 180 which it should do both pretty well!!

going out now to clean the shed and tighten up a few more bits

coming together well all u need now is the big flashy beacon

which plating mate? the bit thats bolted to winch?

it comes with it, got her on ebay, hopefully it will be a good one!

The sheeting that your putting on the floor of the body, where you did you get that gear. Loooking class man, a lot of work in that job. Your not afarid of work anyway, fairplay

just for a while anyway, lol want to get a really really good one for it so gonna wait til one comes up

shes failed doe yesterday without havin being to a mecanic since i got it, just done whatever it needed myself and am left with having to fix the rear breaks for the re-test and head to dips arnt workin, it must have broke on the way to the test because worked the night previous to the test!!

so il get on to it monday and trying to have it ready for next weekend, got some cars to move!

so happy enough that it only failed on that because i thought there would have been more tbh!

Sweeeeeeet! fair play to ya enda, not people can say they built a truck!


And that video is hilarious, i now know who else never to lend tools to!

How long did that take you man ? Was it cheaper than buying one ?

[Livewire 78]

i have the truck since april but i aint been working on it every day!!

have probaby spent about a months worth of time on it which isnt bad

definatly cheaper to build than buy, and plus you wont get exactly what you want when your buying because i was planning on buying a truck in the first place but hard to find something suitable

[Kruizer]

You should start building them to order for people fella, top work...
