Good to see the van's coming keeping you busy up there Jaco, you're sure missed in die Kaap

[SuidWes]

Thanks Rich, it keeps me out of trouble but sometimes gets me into trouble with the boss.... 8 )

[Niel]

sometimes gets me into trouble with the boss

Just sometimes I am sure we all have been there :shifty:

[Ramkat]

Jaco, please post a few pics of how you pack that canopy of yours. I'm planning something similar for my bakkie.

[Scooter]

Looking good Jaco. Definately a difference from when we first met.

We have all definately been in the same boat with the boss but in the end they will always give in.

Camping and the like just becomes so much easier with a well organised vehicle and storage system and that's when they love you for all the cash you spent on it.

What size RR do you have on there?

[SuidWes]

Thanks Scooter,

The RR size is 1130 W by 1150 L

Lyk baie netjies! Gaan jy weer nuwe plakkers opsit?

[SuidWes]

Dankie Thomas - Nog nie besluit oor die plakkers nie... Oorweeg dit om net die Raider plakkers op die voorste deure te plak.

[Pierré]

Hi Jaco.

Baie netjies gedoen sover!

Het vroeer gelees jy het Mikem vere opgesit. Het al baie hulle advertensies gesien. Hoe vind jy hulle sover? En vergelyk hulle goed met die ander bekende name?

Ander vere is nie te ver in die toekoms vir my nie. Ek is net nou eers besig met nuwe bande vir my Hilux.

Groete.
Pierré

[Jaco Versfeld]

Hi Jaco,

Wat se canopy het jy op en wie verkoop/maak dit?

Vriendelike groete,
Anner Jaco

Yis Pierré - Mikem se vere het 'n swaar vrag (600kg+) deur Bots gedra sonder enige probleme en hulle diens is puik - Maak gerus by Darryl 'n draai Het ook nog net goeie goed van OME gehoor.

Jaco - Die canopy is deur ForFours gebou. Dis bietjie swaarder as die alu modelle maar lekker sterk en heelwat goedkoper
