Getting there, Wayne. It is looking good, and I see you have some assistance!

John

As above, Good stuff.

Flamin' heck, Wayne.

I tips me lid to blokes like you and Dinty!

I feel humbled (and ever so much a failure for not having done anything on my IIA!)]

Wayne, This vehicle is very very nice. A great job.

Hi there all

I initally posted some pictures up of the series one - but deleted them as having trouble with Photobucket. The pictures, when uploaded, go all blotchy (and do not do the vehicle justice at all) - but there were replies when I was still editing the message (hate spellling mistakes)

Well, new tyres were fitted on Saturday and it went to its first show on Saturday evening (Wilmington Night Rodeo - ute show). A little reluctant at first as it was paraded with lots of utes with huge V8's with their flags flying, twin stacks like Kenworth Trucks - well then, I won best vintage ute on display (was very amazed). I even got picked up by the local highway patrol on the way home - and laughed at them when they told me i was speeding (they only wanted pictures - but good excuse)

With very little now left to do (said in jest) but it's roadworthy, with just a few minor jobs to be done (Canvas work, plastic side windows etc....)

But ready for the big drive to Cooma - now finishing a few touches on the IIA Fire Tender (found my slight brake problem - swelling front rubber brake line)

I tips me lid to blokes like you and Dinty!

Many thanks for the great words - but if you enjoy what you're doing - you do it well.

Well all the best

Wayne

PS if anyone can help me with my Photobucket issues - please pm me.

What a beautiful bit of Kit, it's a credit to you cobber.
