Firstly you claimed None of them work!

Did you not read, Capt Pneumo was out in the paddock a couple of weeks ago, and the other 2 of them are waiting for the buyer to come up with the money.

Remember not too many months ago, Gog drove up from Tasmania, he can't go anywhere ATM because his front brakes are off and I only today picked (had made) up new brake hoses. If I finish the brake work, I could probably drive him tomorrow afternoon.

There are now only 2 series 1's and I'm bored with 80" at the moment, but I'm happy for you to come over and paint Bemboka and then he too can have his body fitted and go for a drive, his running gear is all assembled just waiting for a body.

Was just noting that these were not on your list - but in the narrative - though looking back over things it is a list of operational landies.

The station wagon will start and will move under its own power - does that count?:D

I still haven't located any other swb station wagons other than one each in SA, Vic, Sydney, and SE Qld and mine. (Tickfords not included)

Yes it does count. The statement was "work" not "registered", but I do have 3 currently registered Landies and a Mk3 International.

Hi everyone.
I have been quiet because of internet problems and will be for some time.
I have some good vid of my 101 in action , but cannot post it currently.
This weekend is another one with the local 4wd club at the family farm, and it looks like a wet one.
I have been chasing electrical problems in my 101 for some time as the wiring was much changed by a previous owner and done poorly.
After 4 years of owning the vehicle I finally found the thing had fuses in the non standard wiring hidden away behind a non standard panel that takes alot of work to remove........a not very clever idea.
Next weekend I will be going to abercombie national pk for the AMVCS winter rallie ?
I have heard very little abut it this year and believe numbers will be down because of back too the track is on too.
I will go regard less as I like the area and the run.

The LROC hasn't been invited this year and in view of Eastern Creek Classic issues I'm pretty sure we won't be invited. :(

Also got the other defender seat fitted. Even though the base of the passenger seat if a different colour they fit and work well and they were freebies from a parenties.

The rear towbar was an issue as the pintal hook was to low for the trailer but thats been sorted also.
