Looks more like a Country Buggy...
Went for a spin yesterday with Wiz in his new Wizmobile and it runs really good for a bitsa. Brother should be very pleased when he finally gets his hands on it. Well done mate - keeping the dream alive.

Not joking mate, you sold me a great 61 ute and I have found a back of a dual cab cabin, how hard can it be?

Yeah thanks Steve, total opposite to me, he still has his hair, eats well and genuinely likes people. Funny thing when he was here was he asked where the spare tyre was and why the safari's leak, and the drum brakes dont pull up that well, looked suprised when I couldn't stop laughing. Ian

Dropped the Ute at the Transport Depot to go to Qld, Joe inspected the ute, clearly not a fan of the Rat Look , and check out the general condition
