Excellent question!
I'll try get an email out in the next couple days.
It'll be a pretty easy day on the Friday so there's not a massive rush to get away. Someone asked me and I forget what I said, probably something like, aim for 8:30 leaving, realistically 9:30
Spot on (it was me who asked) so you're not going entirely crazy.

Crikey. In a weeks time we'll all be slurping on a pink pussy. Better go put some stuff in a bag

Shit yeh. A lot of childhood memories on yachts. We had a Tasman 20 when I was a kid and then upsized to a Gazelle 26 which the old man still has.

Back from the dead (it was never dead tbh)
Meet is tomorrow night. If people want to be on the invite list via Facebook just PM me your real name. I'm not Frank btw, he's the GC that organizes this all.

For what it's worth I think stock looks better.

So seats have been a bit of an issue. The factory drivers one was fucked when I got it, so tracked down a pair of terrano seats a long time ago and have been rolling them. They were better but not great. Then a bench seat popped up locally (and we all know bench seats are superior) in reasonable condition and cheap cheap, so nabbed that and figured I'd need to get creative to make room for the shifter. Thankfully I was wrong! And being tall helps as I want the seat as far back as it can go for leg room anyway. It can move forward enough that the misses should still be able to reach the pedals, and back tips forward so can still get people in the back seats. Just needs a seat cover/nice blanket to top it off. Chuffed.
Excuse the mess....

Not really oldschool but rad none the less. Toyota mega cruiser (yes it's a real thing).
Basically Toyotas version of the humvee. Only 3000 made and largely military use.

I just edited the first post with attendees etc. Lol
Trying to think what is required of me at this point? Reminders anyone?
Clean undies each day, brush your teeth twice a day. And don't forget to milk the cows.

Sorry for being Captain Obvious, but is there a reason a person with your clear mechanical ability didn't just pull the hub off to replace the wheel stud? Would have been child's play no? Or is the hub pressed into the carrier and what not?

Happy now @Nominal?
Made it look like a car again and when for a drive to the servo to pump up the tires. Everything does what it's meant to other than the heater (as you can tell by the steamy windows) as I didn't plump it in when swapping the motor due to not having the right size hoses. So that's next on the list. Otherwise does what it says on the box and goes sssshhhhhrrrreweeoooooaassh when you give it the beans which is A++

It's alive! Threw the rebuilt injectors in and seems happy as. Drove around the block and makes all the right noises and not too many of the bad ones.
Next steps are to put the front back together so it looks like a car again and then start chipping away at the rest of the issues including but not limited to cracked windscreen, bald front tires, no cert, no wof, no reg.

Make sure your nuts are hanging off the right side of the seat to balance that fuel
