A word of advice Hick....ask for the wine list....not the SHINE list...o_Oo_Oo_O
Nope the only shine she wood know wood be the shine off the fire wood. Good girl. The liquids shine comes she would notice is the one communing out of your mouth overthe fire. Yellow, red, blue, green. Color tells the tale. But at 11:25 EST this new drink is very good. As wine went she held her own. Not a novice myself, I have over 325 bottlels in the house with more established elese where. Better, if possible, off site. Drink up people. Just until I die.

Haven't taken of any pics of the new Hawk yet, but I attached the rest of the fleet. The WK1 Jeep will keep winter duties.

I just realised I failed to include my day van on previous post: Nissan Elgrand E51 imported from Japan. Getting quite popular in the UK, Australia/NZ and seems to be a few in Canada but don't know of any in the States. Same sort of idea as a Chevy Astro.

Really advanced features for 2002, practically everything is electric including curtains, sliding doors and it had factory Sat Nav (taken out though as only works in Japan). It's my project car which I make modifications to and attend shows with the owners club. Great for beers and BBQ followed by comfortable sleep rather than a tent.

Started out as a 7 seater and had a bespoke conversion to a day van including pop top roof, rock'n'roll seat which unfolds to 6ft long bed, kitchen with sink, 2 burner hob and fridge, gas/mains hookup night heater, camping toilet and swivel front seat.

It shares VQ35DE 3.5L V6 from 350Z but is a detuned version with lower compression making 240 from factory. I have had a modest turbo charger fitted which was all custom fabrication work including exhaust and tune on piggy back ECU. BHP is increased by nearly 100 at only 5psi. Torque and curve also improved which is key as the van with conversion weighs just over 5000 lbs. Turbo is actually fitted under the engine as bonnet space is limited.

I've also fitted lowered suspension with adaptive damping, stronger sway bars, under body and strut bracing, 20" rims, LED lights and various cosmetics. Quite a few other changes planned including "Fabulous" Japanese body kit which I managed to pick up second hand in the UK off a van which was going to scrap.

Speaking of Japanese imports, this is what I drive the most often, by far. Okay, so it may only be 10-15 miles per week, but still, almost every day.

It's a Daihatsu HiJet, and I haven't had this mighty 3-cylinder on the dyno, and don't plan to. Actually, it's usually in low range. DSCN0687.JPG DSCN0691.JPG

I've only seen 1 so far, a light green colour which looked nice, kinda retro in a good way.
Its local and I saw it again just this morning towing a large plant trailer.

I love a tipper :D

An ex-Elgrand owner moved onto a Honda Acty - very similar albeit his is older and not sure if they share a fair amount of parts.
As be bought it on page 1:

Take a few hours to go through the whole thread but towards the end of page 77 with lots of work done and quite transformed:
