Hi all
Back in Darwin
All up round trip of 8500 kms
Went to pick up some wide 5 14 inch rims 150 km down the coast, when I got there they turned out to be Chevy steel rims sorry mate I thought I had 5 do you want them HMM NO but thank for the lovely drive I think I just lost a bit more hair
Few more dramas on way back
1speedo cable 2 speedo's believe it or not might have picked a few speeding tickets, Hmm
Had to do a Tyre rotation and a self wheel align ment in a lay by
Heaps of overheating
but she made it back to Darwin give her a rest then some serious reworking of the cooling and fuel system
From Mt Is a to Three ways 640 kms on 46 Ltrs fuel gotta be happy not that
Had an awesome time
Thanks heaps every one
Have a drink Must dance
Cheers Gaz
Start as you mean to go on
