Yes i agree about the brown colour. Just rub the paint off the floor runners and toolbox door, apply some salt and leave ouside for a week, sorted!

I'm liking the rust brown colour as well, but not as much as I'm liking that brown cooler in the background.
I feel a mod scooter on the horizon. Got some nice Noteks if you want any swaps.

Hi mate
The brown Coleman is blagged by the misses to go in her 78 Dakota beige Westy .
I do have quite a few other coolers up my unit , Coleman ,thermos ,therma chest etc ,different colours
Alli , red ,blue and a few jugs , and probably 8 wagons
I've only ever found two brown ones in 8 years of looking myself ..
Cheers Steve
