Back in the shed working away on the diesel heater
Plumbed into the og heater log pipe, will connect the 2 pipes outside the firewall to send the heat forward
Might have build a restricter for the air into the heater log to push it forward to the from cab vents

Gotta love some OG round mirrors, it’s the little things. Can feel the heat from that diesel heater from Adelaide.

Wonder when Second Hand was turned into OG?
Also, I was once knocked back on a Roadworthy because of worn pedal rubbers
Maybe if you tell them that they are OG they might pass

I know Matt will reply because it gives him a chance to put OG in a sentence

Was thinking the same, will have some new ones ready to go if it’s a problem on the day
To be honest it’s the least of my worries come rwc day
Unfortunately my normal bloke has retired from doing rwc
