Yep. Got asked this one on the weekend. Not for the fist time.
As you may or may not be aware, JayBoRover Bought a 1 ton cargo trailer in Victoria. He had to get it taken to the transport depot to begin it's journey to WA.
Well, the 100" hybrid needed the cobwebs blown off it.

So I hitched up John's trailer and away I went.

When I got to the depot, whilst I was unhitching the trailer, The fellow there asked me about my Cruiser.
I'm having second thoughts about selling it now.

Thanks heaps for doing that mate. I'm really looking forward to seeing it. I started my 86" today and moved it out of the carport so the new trailer gets under cover. (The 86" is not in the workshop shed so I can get it running a little better before putting it up for sale).
I have a couple of wheels like what is on your hybrid lying around here. You interested in them?

They sure do! I'm looking forward to the day I can do something for them in return. This is a great community all around though:). Just that these two characters do stand out:angel:.

Ta, John. I have plenty of those rims.
If you could send your 101 back this way, that would be great.

Or send Andy's D4. I could use an extra drinks fridge for this time of year.

The 101 is here to stay I'm afraid, but give me a few nights to sort out getting the D4 for you. Now, where did I leave that black balaclava and the pinch bar?:)

I think I saw them, just next to where Landy Andy keeps his pump action shotty , nail decorated baseball bat collection and the gurkha knife (the Khurkuri) .....

If I recall correctly anyway :angel:

I'm sure you meant Kukri. Did andy have a glass case with one of these chaps in it, with the sign " in case of trouble, break glass"? no one would mess with Andy.

Where I work we have a local god botherer on staff. A nice approachable fellow who is there to talk to if you have any issues at work or at home.
Well, last week, he dropped into the office for a bit of a chat, to make sure all is well in paradise.
The boss is a bit of a car nut. He has a XA GT that makes Ted Bullpit's Kingswood look neglected.
The topic of conversation moved to the Mercs ( or as he described "Ferrari owners daily drive" ). I showed him a few pics of the Mercs on trips. The truck was mentioned so I ran him through pics of the collection. When we got to the 100", he commented "You wouldn't go far in the Toyota." I then showed him photo's of the Dengali trip, after pointing out it was a Landrover.
