I only drove it on Saturday to go and pick up some parts and order some parts to replace what was stolen/damaged. As of yesterday arvo I had fitted my new window, fixed the damaged wiring, wired in my new shift light and mounted the cup for my new tacho which will turn up on Wednesday. Still got a few little things to tidy up as well, but not more than an hour or so of work should sort that out.
I goes in for paint repairs shortly  Then it will be back to how it was

Maybe not a good idea to post number plates (there are several reasons not to do this )........
.....and exact locations of where vehicels are parked is probably not a real good idea either with the amount of thefts and break-ins going on lately.

From Gymquip I hope... Ya shoulda asked for a discount from T-man!
Yesterday, I saw an RA40 coupe with a turbo engine of some sort and a rather tasteful bonnet scoop... Dude had a bit of an ego though. When I turned onto Fairbairn Ave and passed him, going "Bwaaaaaaaaaaaah", he thought it would be cool to hit the accelerator to make his car go "Whhhhhheeeeeee... Ptssstch".
Also, I parked next to Nark's car at some apartments in Griffith.

folks sold their farm and bought the motorhome and trailer (approx 6 weeks ago)to do a round Oz trip and live in. i am following them back to WA to live and get work back in the underground mines there.
the boat normaly goes up on top of the trailer, but i am towing it behind my feroza instead and the feral is getting a free ride over on the trailer.
unfortunately i cannot take it off the trailer until we get over to WA and find a nice ramp to reverse up too.. 
last time i could drive it was in Brissie before we loaded it up there, i've been in Sydney a few days now and havnt been able to flog around in it.

An old fart in a bright yellow TA22...any takers
White *A2* being fanged along in Phillip with a twin cam...guessing this was Tricky?
Apparently a champagne coloured TA22 is in Canberra somewhere...haven't heard or seen this one myself yet.
Saw these in the last few days/past week
Some guy in a maroon MK111 (Targa top I think) Supra that I seem to come across on Kingsford Smith Dr. fairly regularly.
Some homos green KE2* coupe at the paint shop in Belconnen last week sometime...

Saw a green TA23 last night that I hadn't seen around before, looked quite neat as it drove past. The plates were the model code too.
Also spotted the Feral MR2 on the double decker trailer on Sunday arvo somewhere on the highway to Melbourne, I was heading back to Canberra and your bus and trailer were heading south. I think it was between ALbury and Melbourne, but I was so tired I can't really remember.

Hope not...T-man was 'fangin' in the Lada today! It passed rego again! Yay... Even though the front main seal is leaking, the timing chain hits the rocker cover every now and then, the handbrake is inoperative, the clutch needs bleeding (and needs a new return spring), second gear synchro is marginal and the steering box is missing part of a tooth! I guess they're happy as long as the lights and indicators work .
I recently saw a RA28 with an obvious choice of number plates, JZA80 supras of every kind, two JZA70's (one with shagged turbo oil seals... stinky) lotsa bog stock TA22's. Last week one of the CCG dudes (the one with a white RA23... My cars twin) parked next to my car in Fyshwick and had a chat.
In the next couple of weeks, my celica won't be seen, 'cos it's time to freshen the 18RG... Apparently compression in one of the pots was like 90psi cold... And I bought it like this . Good price though!

Nah, the Lada is NSW registered. My Celica is ACT registered, and it passed with low compression, fearful blowby (some of which enters the intake... sometimes... So it's probably defectable), oil pissing out the filler 'cos there was no oil filler gasket and a bloody great crack on the bottom tank of the radiator!
Sometimes I ask myself why I get shagged cars... And beleive me, they are both significantly better now than what they were when I bought them!
