I think I was in lala land thinking we would be starting our adventure this coming Wednesday! Joe still needs to do the following to the car…

Joe- incomplete hilux jobs:

• install new canopy roof racks (to support roof top tent)
• mount the side annex
• install solar regulator
• complete solar panel skid
• mount solar panels
• vacuum/wash/protect body of the hilux
• figure best way to handle our rubbish/decide on bin/way of installing
• work out how to store/carry gas bottle
• apply lanolin to wells in front door
• apply protective coating to the plastic interior of car
• protect fuel tank
• fit air filter
• rubber strips to protect tray from dust
• install snorkel (Joe keeps on insisting he do this himself, the thought of Joe drilling a giant hole in the body of the hilux makes me very nervous)
• oil storage drawers
• Spend a few days with his mate Mark (awesome auto electrician) installing/modifying the electrics including; lighting, new GPS/DVD/TV/radio/stereo system, switches, power, wiring solar panels and dual battery.

More stuff unrelated to the car but for our trip:

• configure both our new laptops
• pack electronics, laptops, batteries, lights, cameras

THENNNNNNNNNNNN there is all the loose ends to tie up regarding our house.

Can’t wait to get out of P E R T H 🙂
