Well after righting my Knun26 off I ordered a new 2016 model in November it finally came in April and after a day I stripped it down and got started on building it up like my old one, still along way to go but everything cost money unfortunately so I will slowly plug away at it.
I'm waiting to get the canvas modified to fit the rear over the cage etc
next is water tank dual battery and a lot of wiring , suspension and tyres.

It's a sore point snakesoup, hit a parked tradie trailer attached to a new cruiser which was parked on road, didn't see with the sun glare. I just finished building my boat rack and then gone:( so I got the same tray so I could use my dog box and canopy etc

Awesome looking setup you've got there mate.To ask a rude question roughly what did the canvas canopy cost to get made up ?
