Telstra style canopies

Thought that might be the case but still worth trying.

What are they worth new? Should I be sitting down!!!!

Ouch. They are nice and reduce weight but .....................

Thanks will give them a ring, at least Brisy is only a days drive away.

Thanks but I've seen what telstra and ergon vehicles can have done to them. Don't know why more aren't broken.

There is always a doubt as with any second hand vehicle.

I have one & I am pleased as punch with it.

Telstra vehicles are regularly serviced. What needs to be done is done No crimping on the maintenance.

The one that I purchased I followed up through the service books
Spoke with servicing garage & found out who the driver was. Got the full history from him on where it had been,

I gave mine a full service, changed all the fluids & a new radiator.
Well worth the money.

Flashed up with a bit of polish & a paint touch up & the 4WD specialists want $30 plus for them.

What do you have to do to a good diesel motor to kill it.
Drive over the speed limits etc & it is pretty costly to the pocket.

I just thought the one with the stuffed motor at $9000 was less than the cost of a new canopy.
Take the canopy off & sell the vehicle as parts

That's very true and surely you'd get a few grand for the vehcile.

As for Telstra vehicles you're also right, if you can get the right one and check it out thourghly then all should be ok. I just know what a few people have put their ergon ute through and it's got to do long term damage to the chassis and drive train.

Thanks for the tip though, I'll certainly keep my eye out.

Thanks for the tip.

Impressive

Hi Dave,

I'm seriously considering building one myself as well. Any chance you could take a stack of picture for me to get me on the right track?? If you're willing I'm after a truck load of pictures, underneath, inside, doors, in the corners, etc, etc. Close enough to give me some detail to get my head around what I should do.

If you're ok with it let me know and I'll post my address.

Thanks

G'day Austravel
