and he just so happened to have just about everything i needed for the project,so had to get it.
took 4 hours outside in the snow though
got it all for a sweet price too.
just gotta wait for snow to clear a bit cos my unit is out in the sticks where roads dont get gritted.
i got a 4x4 but still dangerous out there.
dying to get stuck in though
