Nice pickup (no pun intended)

I always wanted one of these but I kinda don't fit in them so I'll have to stick to my coupes. At least I can get the seat back far enough

Drum brakes suck...... but boosters are for whimps

Enjoy

Just another pic so you can see the stance of it, low at the front, high at the back... awesome 8) Just fixed most of the oil leaks, its got some stupid pod filter thing on it with no place for the crank breather... and because of all the blowby(alot) it pisses out oil and smoke, so now it goes to a bottle just behind the rear wheels, no more oil leaks!!! And I dont get smoked out in the cab :lol:
Already need about 10things, including a radio :P
My mate recons it sounds like a rotary :roll:

Thats the best 1000 ute i've seen to date. Most have been neglected or are missing parts (cause they are hard to get).

If you can fit in one, its pretty much the perfect daily! something that uses hardly any fuel, but can be called upon to carry a bunch of sh!t in the back! brilliant! :lol:

Just put a new grill on... a proper one. Dattoman1000 sold me this one. I just gave it a quick tidy up and it looks great!

Ive also got another A12 to go in it. This one just needs rings and bearings and it'lll be set to put in! Might be putting a weber on too!
