Well, I didn't make it.

I was two streets away from home and went to change gears and nothing much happened...got underneath and the selecter rod has snapped!!!

So got in the trusty ole EH and she did the trip.

I wondered why the gears were so hard to select. It will be fixed friday,

Two streets from home is far better than 200.
Pity about it but not that hard to get sorted.
I look forward to some pics on Friday!
Cheers & God Bless

I had the throwout bearing fork snap AND the hockey stick snap in the space of two minutes once, stuck in 1st gear and no clutch. Had to nurse it home by turning the bus off at red lights....then start her up to go....in 1st gear. Took an hour to get home :x

I am happy with the plates, they weren't cheap!!

I was up at hervey bay on the weekend, was a great weekend.

Still sorting out a few probs with the bus, the generator is fingered so have just put an new alternater in and the fuel tank was leaking from the top sender point so getting that all fixed and a few other little things.

Snaped the accelerator spring on the way so replaced that.

Also not happy with the paint in some areas so has to be redone. Then it's onto the interior - $$$ :shock:
