Ray it is lookin good dude. No shortcuts is the best way by the look of it.

Wouldn't it be postman Fritz? Pat is probably off driving a Commer or some other such POS.

Hmmm, 2 frids, 1 flxable, umpteen splitties and the odd (some would say very odd) lobus. We will knock em out with our display if it all comes to pass.

I hope he doesn't charge for photos in front of it. If he does I will have to rob a bank or 2 on the way up there.
I am starting to get tingles up my spine thinking how much fun we are going to have over the weekend.
Life is good eh?

Just did 3000kms round trip to the snow and back to Byron, last big trip it used 34 litres of oil in 8000 kms ! this trip after a complete rebuild practically nothing, really looking forward to Valla , should i make a destination sign for the bus that says "Dsk" ? and another question do you have to have a bumber on the front of a splitty? cheers Matt
