    managed to get the mag on with a few threads on each nut and limped it to a rellies place at tamborine village,where after some frantic hither and thithering a replacement tyre was found , a spare tyre from a 15 inch commodore rim,some backyard mechanicing and the tyre was fitted to the sunraysia,albeit looking a little like somethnig seen in the "hood"
    part 2 of the journey this after noon found me driving into Beaudesert with a white commodore with pretty lights on top on the side of the road,(at this point it will be stated that blow out "removed" right front indicator assembly ,so that coupled with no grill,some pretty strange looking skinny low profile tyres,and NO INTERIOR except for drivers seat,exhaust finishing in front of rear diff,strange looking crayon flame job on the bonnet,cut away guards MINUS flares thanks josh and the small matter of rego run out three weeks ago )no one other than me and my launderer will know how much panic went thru my mind at that point
    Mr Plod it seemed had something of interest on the seat that made him not see me as i quietly glided thru town ,then got the hell outta there

    cruised thru Boonah then snuck around the back of Moogerah then finally HOME!!!!!!! then parked it just behind "Thumper",looked just like a pair of bookends only thumpy looks a little better

    twas very lucky indeed

    Another thread missed by me

    Ow its alot funnier now reading the story of the trip home, than hearing you tell me on the phone the next day.

    Mang I am so glad the engine is good, it musta been all in my head (re: it seeming sluggish to me).

    I also noted elsewhere that you got the engine transplanted and thumper up and running.... MORE FEED BACK AND PICS MANG.... DEF NEED MORE PICS.... Thats was my only link to 4wdin and it lasted me about 4 months

    Now i have the white dunger POS here (looks like a giant slug in a field of rusty grass) not running, not gonna be finish, not gonna be used....
    So sad... ow sooo sad...

    You forgot to tell everyone about your rola racks there still on the car here.... bout the only thing worth any sorta $ on it

    Luv Grimace

    p.s. Keen to see sum pics and more news on how everything else goes. This is kinda like my own build up that i actually have nuthing to do with.... its the only hope i have
