He and David O'conner got pulled up at a dub cruise.
O'conner got done for T bars and Tacho mount.Just above radio plate.5% in the windscreen.
Gluyas was done for something ( i was told) but am unsure what it was exactly.

Typical "fat,good for nothing,time wasting,pain in the arse cops"

Wheel track was too wide. The tyres just ever so slightly sticking out of the guards - stupid picky thing to get done for.

Its heaps more roadworthy looking than what they get away with in California, like turbo bugs with no decklids, full on drag cars etc, Adelaide is so conservative

The wheels are in motion to getting it back on the road. I believe what was wrong was that little did he know until he stuck the massive wheels on his car that the pan was actually bent and when fitted the left rear stuck out about 8mm. A new pan is on the way with engineers cert. Hopefully not too long as its a great car. He doesn't bring it out unless the sun is shining so proberly a good time to do the mods being cold and wet everyday here at the mo.
