    Dream.build.drive

    This has nothing to do with e30's.......or BMW at all. But for anyone that is a motorhead, has a dream and a desire to create and build, watch this.

    I have been following this guy from almost the beginning after stumbling across his build online. It's a great story, very inspirational, especially to those of us that have to do it all on our own.

    Enjoy.

    At the suggestion of our infamous George Graves, here are some links on more of his work and blog.

          Watched it on mute. Fab work is amazing, but Aussie accents cause me to fly into fits of rage.

                          Nigel was already a drifter..........

                          Nigel had a dream to be the first person to build a vehicle from scratch specifically designed and dedicated to that sport.......and he did it.

                          If you look at some of his other videos or find his blog you really start to appreciate what he did. That guy literally built every part for that truck, it's amazing.

                                      The work he put into it is amazing, the truck is so cool.

                                      Way was it called a Yut? am i spelling that right? I thought it was a Toyota shell, or is that what he named it on the forum he attends.

                                          That I'm not sure of I caught that a few times, the only thing I could think of is it might be slang for Toyota over there? I know its a Toyota Hilux because he says that a few times.

                                              a ute is basically a car in the front half with a truck bed in back, but based on a car platform. its a silly Australian thing.

                                                      I would literally live in that garage, as just having that would be a dream.

                                                          Ute is short for utility. Generally used when referring to a car chassis with a bed in the back such as the Commodore or Falcon ute but also used to describe other compact "pickup trucks" like a Hilux.
