Moose, I'm hoping to keep the M180 engine it currently has but hopefully with a high compression head to help boost power. I will be considering LPG but it depends on cost to buy and finding a suitable place for the tank. I will be going to the Newby Hall Rally so hopefully see you and some other members there. Message me where you are and I will pop round.
Villanger, Yeah I agree the hard cab is better looking and the reason I bought this one and it offers better weather protection although its not easy to get in and out of

. I think the best way forward on the speed front is to try and keep the overall weight of the truck down so I have a few ideas on that front. Will try and get down to the forum meet but it will not be in the mog maybe next year.
