Would borrow my Dads pop top Franklin, little single axle job, on the back of the G60 in the 70's, which didn't even know it was there, had a gas fridge, which thinking back could have done with one of my fridge upgrade mods, lights could be 12v from the Nissan, had a gas stove but that was for our flash camps, usually we were up in the bush on a gnarly FWD track, camping in our tent with Esky and Tilly lamp, great days well before it became the thing to do, if you had a FWD back then it was used as such ............ When we got the Engel it was a truck battery which gave 3 days of use enough for a weekend up bush, bush being only 20 min drive before you needed to lock in the front diff into some pretty good wild country .....................Glad we did it all before they shut everything down and fixed roads up for the yuppie class, now to many creaks and groans to handle jump ups and corrugations thats why I have a yuppie vehicle now...... We are amazed at how we managed to get away so often as I wasn't always around but when home we would be off every 2nd weekend ......................
I don't miss the rough stuff or warm beers one bit though I do like some of the modern stuff.......... just take care not to get sucked in by the PR Blurb, like CDs/DVDs will last forever, yeah right I said...................
