Heads Up. No JeepDraw during SEPTEMBER
Heads up.
I'll be away for a month or so as I'm taking a road trip with one of my lads.
We're heading into the Wilds of Cape York again.
So no JeepDraw Requests will be processed from the end of August until the end of September
How can I disappoint this smiling face....and we just finished doing up this old Landy to take with us just to make it more interesting.

If we get stuck.... no worries, we won't die of thirst......
Working up to taking the GPW. First trip was in a fully equipped modern 4 x 4, tha was 2 years ago, now this, if it works out then we'll consider the jeep.

Re: Heads Up.
I scrolled through the pics rather quickly at first. When I reached the last post, I went back up more slowly. That was when I saw the jerry cans...
Is it true real Jeeps have flat fenders?

Mark, had an absolute ball mate...... 7872km just doing the edges of the State, the old landy never missed a beat, and thankfully, never needed assistance.Mark Tombleson wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2017 3:11 pmHave a great trip, Jon!

Re: Heads Up. No JeepDraw during SEPTEMBER
High adventure for the Mighty! Looks like a daring and very rewarding trip, Jon. Glad you and your son made it back home safe and sound, as you two were poking Fate in the eye with a hot charred stick.
Happy Jeep Trails,
