Hey everyone,
For starters my names andrew, im 17 and working at berri irrigation service in the riverland of south australia as an apprentice irrigation assistant, still studying my year 12 because i dont want to drop out of school just yet and one day want to own my own earthmoving company. Currently building my own articulated front end loader from scratch, along with many other projects.
I recently bought a 86 VL off of a mate who used it for spare parts for his VL, and am in the process of building it up. In the end itll hopefully have a full aero body kit, RB30 Turbo and 5 speed gearbox, along with a line up of mods and a fully sick sound system, so ill be refering to this forum alot for help along the way :p Apprentice wages arent the best, so this will be a long project to get it right, but we're good at saving all our money then spending it on things like cars lol
Ill probs post some pics up soon, not much to look at for now besides parts though, cheers

Welcome Andrew :D Nice to meet you

welcome Andrew

know the felling about wanting to do up the VL lol
i have a wagon still needs to be done up lol

Welcome Andrew

haha yeah its a bummer, but the more time you spend on it, the better itll come out in the end =)

G'day Andrew, building your own articulated front end loader from scratch is impressive mate.As you said apprentice wages are'nt great,but at the end of the day when the VL's finished you can look back at it with pride.

Thanks, i seen some people making front end loaders for their little ride on lawn mowers in america, so i decided i do the same. but bigger, and better :D its not much yet, but will be soon, just like the vl lol
