Well the rumers are true Al and I are starting on a new project

It will take a while but meet Isurus

Question - What the hell does that mean Yep it's another name like Longimanus this time it is the latin for Mako Shark, which is also known as The Blue Pointer (a chick on the beach when she is cold as opposed to White Pointer ) sorry girls There is me being politically correct again

The Mako is a dark blue in colour and is the fastest shark in the ocean. No prizes for guessing she will end up Blue, not Red sorry guys. She is also going to be dam fast if I get my way, so enjoy the build. I know I will

I have a number more photo's to post when I get time but I only just got home so stay tuned.

Dave thanks for the hospitality and she is in good hands so don't worry I will be gentle

By the way guys YES they are bullet holes in the front and there are a few on the side also. I think I have to keep them

ratty???????????????????

ian the mako is the most savage too isn't it, hooked one trawling for mackeral once & didn't it put on a show that would of impressed a marlin.

Ian, after seeing how impressive your first project was can't wait to see what happens here. Fast sounds good..........

Hey Ian what's in the thinking to make it FAST??

Sweet mate, And it won't matter what colour it is , it's yours .. All the way with the bullet holes . Maybe after you paint it and the holes are still there , they could be filled with a really good clear fill resin that wouldn't react with the paint ..
Seen the same type of application on wood work projects . There were feature holes in the wood , they were filled with clear resin, and opals were set into the resin .. They were plenty visable and looked the goods .. Anyway thats wood and not a car , and i'm sure you have plenty of your own idea's.. Have fun

Welcome to the single life Ian

ian love the name... suits well. really looking forward to this build + maybe a few little custom bits for work of course...

dont get rid of that awesome red... just add clear over it

Good idea about the clear resin will look into that one

Thanks guys I am excited as a pig in shit on this

Matt sorry Blue is my colour but it will be good mate trust me

Hoves you will just have to wait Bro but I plan to send it down the track a few times. It needs to be practical though as I want to use it for work also. so it won't be too over the top.

Although we could install something akin to my 2.4L turbo injected drag engine being built currently....



....300+hp at the rear wheels may be a little too much for the old single cab, so we may go for something similar to this (in mockup stage at the moment).


Time will tell.....

Al

The sky is the limit Al my friend one thing for sure is I have a excuse to hang around Burleigh Point stealing waves from locals that can't surf whilst giving locals respect to those who can surf & just plain dodging the bloody long boarders that can't turn

Dam I guess I have better do another TV doco to pay for this thing more traveling and frequent flyer points

Ian,

Nice project mate

leave em some waves you dont want to give cripples a bad rep.

Mitchell

Will need quite a few ponies to keep up with this single cab I saw in the US recently....

Lincoln, Lincoln, Lincoln, Lincoln....

If you are going to paint it lose the bullet holes - if not keep 'em.
Look forward to seeing your unique style on this. Good score.

Hey Kombi Trip I spend about 3 months a year in Lincoln on and off. Love the place good surf too but I have already had 1 surfboard bitten out there ha ha PS check out the thread idea in trips I am about to put up.

PPS the best think about Lincoln is the Crays, Tuna , King George whiting and to top it all off the best Oysters in the world just down the road at Coffin Bay
