Following an amazing run of spectacular project vehicles over the past five years, we've decided to take a slightly different approach this time around and create something truly special for Aussie tradies.

Our goal is to turn a 2023 Mitsubishi Triton GLX-R into an ultimate custom tradie machine, and in the process make it the perfect set-up for both work duties and weekend adventures with family and friends. As always, we'll be assisted along the way by Australia’s top-shelf aftermarket accessories industry, ensuring the Triton will go from off-the-shelf to off-the-hook by the time we have finished with it.

Watch this space as we pile on heaps of new content during our 'Tradie Triton' build.
