After building my dream 300 Series, it’s time to get my hands dirty with something a little more down-to-earth. The Ultra-Budget Overlander will go back to the roots of overlanding for an epic road trip.

THE DREAM TOW-TOURER

The first 4WD I’ve ever bought new, and built with the intention of fitting it out as my dream 4WD.

THE CRUISER BUG BITES

My first foray into the world of Land Cruisers. We travelled most of NSW in this old bus without it ever putting a foot wrong.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

This little terrier is where this journey started for me. An amazingly simple little machine that is still one of my favourite 4WDs of all time.

HOME ON WHEELS

Our first full-size caravan that we’ve set up to tackle everything from a weekend adventure to the big lap.

OUR FIRST INDOOR TOILET

As our first daughter got bigger, we realised that it was time to update and upgrade for the inevitable night-time toilet duties (it was pretty comfortable too).

REALLY BIG TENT ON WHEELS

After we had a few trips with a pregnant wife attempting to climb into a rooftop tent, it was time to move on to something a little easier to access.
