Yea man, id be keen, havnt been on a meet with you fellus, so probly should sort my shit out and meet up, ill be rockin the utarus Mite be keen on valuation, but know the utes not worth funk all, not without a new engine and a bit or rust work, and suspension and .....

Must have seen you the same day aswell flicking it around the corner, running steelies on the back, i was coming out of new world in the ute, and tryed to keep up, no chance in the farm hack lookin funkin sweet tho

Alright so, as promised, even if it is abit late. After the lowering Now those mud flaps are sitting in the weeds Didnt quite park it up in the same place, but you get the idea. Bit of wank cloud acton Will get some photos of it on the ground so you get a better idea of ride height. Sits so much better, and brougth the back down a tad aswel. bumpy as funk tho but all good fun Still havent sorted out the last bit of wood to run down each side, but will sort it out. Finally getting back into the Volkswagen, Getting a narrow beam made and sent up to me hopefully just in time for Nats will see, still got the brakes and door sill to sort, oh yea and WOF fingers crossed

Cheers man, Wood cam to about $260 Bolts $95 Oils $35 + left over POR15 Not that bad really, but more than what i wanted to spend on my daily. Sweet will keep and eye open. Nar man, Thats a Blue Renault and I work in Miramar, at a film rental company called Portsmouth, that trucks one of our lighting trucks.

So Finally ive sorted out the deck, has turned out really well. Njoi First one down 6 bolts in.... .....17 plankets and 98 more bolts to go..... 8 plankets, by myself, took like 2 hours!! So thats all i could be funked doing that night.... .... but with a couple of mates the next day finished it off nicely And hadnt really posted any nice photos of this so went for a cruise and got some better ones Still not sure if i want to paint the whole deck frame with POR15, Black deck and yellow cab mite get alittle bubble bee Will sort out that gap later. Deck was exactly 18 plankets wide "on paper", and didnt really fit so im going to get another planket cut the middle out of it and run it down the outsides Loving that mud flap sitting in the weeds... .....So got it home and decided that enough was enough, time for front end to meet some tarmac Easier than busting out the jack Lasy fuck Love this photo, not a big fan of yellow cars (go figa), so im letting it get as dirty as i can Ill be pist off if some one cleans it but mite have to when/if i do this stencil acton Teezer, heres a sneak-peek, as you can see shes on her bump-stops Riding a tad boucer than before reminds me of my old Mazda b1600 Just whipped up some stencil options for the ute paint is the real photoshop, FTW You get the idea Will post photos of it lower during the week Went back to the same place to get some comparasion photos, and will get some of it on the flat

Yeah just moved the other day, HELL move GFs got so much stuff, but flat deck came in handy. Fark thats crazy, Coz i thought i saw your car and when i came out of Mt Vic tunnel, I saw a cop at the basin lights, but he didnt go me. Well lucky. Hope they didnt sting you for anything, farkers , but yeah water flying everywhere was funi as ay Cheers Allan, Wood was $6.80 per meter which isnt to bad considering if i did it in ply id be looking at around the same price. I got it from PlaceMakers Kilbernie, all the builders when keen as on it asking what it was so mite be a new product even the guy that worked there cutting it up for me hadnt seen it before

Good Shmit, Will do... Char

Trying to get the deck sorted out, Had 2 weeks paid leave off so was all keen to get heaps done on the ute but have been moving house so had to work around that. Tried to get it all sorted out in one day, but just getting the old crappy ply off turned into a shit fight. So was abit ambitious and maybe cause i didnt get up and into it untill mid-day didnt really help Anyway everyone loves photos so here..... Few Curb Hoppers Was good fun driving around in the wet with no deck, water pissing out ten feet high And rocking that wiring dangling between her legs lol good shmit Gave it all a good coat of POR15 i had left over from the VolksWagen Came out pretty sweet even tho its all gona be covered up, shouldnt rust out on me and considring ive spent a fair bit on the new wood better make it count Just done a secound/touch up coat tonight will post new photos once the decks finish Green Heart, Hard wood timber decking Its GOOD even says so...See Really nice wood, got it all cut to lenght (paid for NO waste), and for what it costs you wouldnt want to, All up was 36 meters worth, Just picked up some nice stainless steel coach bolts today, 102 in total!!! not cheap either. Going to get some oil for the wood tomorrow in my lunch break, and after work hopefully ill have the deck back on, and all the other shmit bolted up eg wheel gaurds and shmit

Yea VolksWagons still around, will get stuck in as soon as i sell my motorbike Before shoots White walls looking SWEET Been lucky enough to keep the VW under cover, as the smashed sunroof/perspex mock-up is leaking Farkers!! Loving that 80s brown!! Leaf spring on this side was such a pain in the arse to separate from the axle, was like rusted togeather, in the end we had to drop it down on the drum brake to put tension on it, still didnt let go! so then i smash the leafs with a sledge hammer, finally snapped apart Can see the differance in size, so had to drill out the shock plates and squeeze the U-bolts to fit Re-did the white walls....... ....Came out really good, pretty happy with final result Next day tho, they cracked pretty bad on the fronts, cause i painted them so big the force from turning i think is making them freak-out looked SWEET the day i did it ,and really cant be fuct doing it again, at least not at the moment Next job, lower the front (Running torsion bars so easy fix) not going to slam it but needs to come down alittle was thinking some stencil action (cause pretty much havent had a car that hasnt had some) was thinking with the whole yellow theme maybe some taxi checker board shmit running down the side, and then re-do the deck with some nice hard wood slate acton and get rid of that stupid "King Of Cars" sticker, keep on forgeting to do it
