Hey GTO I was thinking of picking up a new Mahindra Thar - do you recommend buying a new one, or restoring an old one? And, any take on Maruti Gypsy vs Thar? Bolero is also an option, but I want an off-roader, because I've already got several choices for my city drive, and comfort.
I am new to the team here. Had read about your off roader on the forum, but having seen it here, I must admit, its awesome. Me too dreaming to get this kind of offroader once I start getting some money in my pocket. ;)
Till than will have to be content with my WagonR!
Nice pics of a great car!
Rush, Thanks. Got the canopy done, however, the chap messed up my doors something bad....!! I downloaded a few of your JP snaps to show by example and get the mess corrected. Could you please do me a favor and send me a few snaps of the door from the inside? One to see the finish, second to see how it seals in with the jeep body. my mail address is dsouza-dot-denzil-at-gmail-dot-com.
The way this guy has made it... it looks real weird and is not functional as well. Apologize for contacting you out here...

Congrats Serenity! The Classic was my daily drive for a couple of years too. On the canopy, all I can tell you is to use material similar to that of the Mahindra Thar, and ensure no leaks. Look up my latest Classic thread for more info.
Rush, got myself a Mahindra Classic with a Bolero engine for about 3.5 Lacs with Maxxis Trepadors and power steering. I am looking to fit in a canopy (its my primary car...i know i know i know....but its always been a dream..n what better time to live a dream right?).... I like the canopy that you have....i am trying to get a person in Blore to get this done for me... Would you have any do's n don'ts?
I am new to Jeeping and driving to a certain extent...
Awesome ride Rush. I knew you had a classic Merc and a preworshipped Civic but am not much of a regular in the 4X4 forum so may have missed this. Nice!
i have been following you since my introduction to team-bhp , and am really enamored with your passion for the classic .Its been my dream to own one for my leisure drive across the city and occasional escapes to vindhya ranges , lets see when it comes true
Well, the engine has been installed and even started. Currently, the rear axles & diff are being overhauled. We expect to take her for a test verrrrrry soon :)
