My Pride & Joy??

Well, Its a manuel 1998 XH Longreach ute.
I have had it since 2000 and only last year I finally collected all the bits I needed to make her look like an XR and save some dosh to get her repainted Gloss White.

Mods:
*AWC XR front bar & side skirts.
*AU clear side indicators.
*Tinted clear tail lights.
*XR rims with 245 Tyres
*Ghia Leather steering wheel
*Darkest legal tint

Future plans (When I have some spare change):
*Rhino spray on ute liner.
*Front end Lowerd but only up to an Inch. - I use the ute for what it was made for, clearing kerbs, carrying big loads and heavy towing. Although admitidly I find some utes look awsome dumped. I wont be treating mine like a Nissan Skyline.
*CD player with decent speakers - Dunno bout a sub woofer yet.
*Extractors with sports muffler.
*Slotted disk brakes.
*Maybe a sunroof.

My pride and joy is my mk2 Escort RS2000. Its been rebuilt with load of go faster bits, currently working on fitting a Zetec for more grunt. I used to drive it daily but have now bought an ef for that, got sick of trying to keep in clean, polished etc while driving every day. Also means I can take my time fitting parts as I don't need it to get around, its just for fun.
