Picked up some parts for the truck from a guy down the road, and managed to take a quick snap of his truck while he wasn't looking! Any one guess what it is?

Only lived just round the corner when I used to live in Bassett.

He used to walk past when I was out working on my truck and stop to chat. I have been round his for parts more recently too. If we pass each other we generally pull over for a chat.

No photos but I spotted an SJ today. Was near Sarret, Hertfordshire the truck looked lifted with a snorkel, big wheels and wide rubber arches. Covered in moss but think it was dark blue underneath all the moss.

Wondered if it was anyone off here? I was in the T5 transported with a Frazer Nash on the back.
