click on the buggy

Sandy ·

Yeah, I love that car.

pete wood ·

Um, why is he bothering with a five speed and stuff? unless he wants to jump it, it'd be fine with the reduction boxes.

Baja Wes ·

he brought it to dubs by the pub one year. He paid for it to be professionally detailed, but I still won the baja class :P

Sandy ·

Of course, yours is more showy his is more practical.

I'd take wes's ride over brownies any day.. :duh

Sandy ·

Geez, I knew this would happen. Let's not let this get out of hand, here goes...
I've met Wes, he's a nice fella, and I like his car and I know it's very capable, but it's pretty obvious to anyone other than Ray Charles that his is more showy than Brownies and would therefore win shows over it (funny that).
I'm also sure Wes is a big enough boy to defend himself if someone was picking on him (which I am not).
Now let's get back to Brownies car which this thread is supposed to be about.

MikeM ·

If you knew it would happen why did you do it?

either way it was an excuse for me to post Wes's car doing some cool stuff.

Back to Brownies.....

It would be interesting to know what he is using for the 5 speed conversion.

👍 chill sandy I was just saying I like wes's more.. nothing bad to say bout brownies, but I like wes's more! 😀

Sandy ·

I didn't do anything! I just posted a simple coment that was not meant to offend.
Anyway, yes it sounds like he's going to irs while he's at it, wonder if he's going to try and get some more height while he's there. Does anyone know if he's got a lift kit in it to fit those massive tyres?

(yeah I know $2, your post came up while I was typing mine) :kiss

yeah, that's what I heard last.

Brownies car is actually very tidy. It is really neatly done and looks cool. I think the votes at the show were actually pretty close.

Brownie has spent a lot more on his car, mainly cos he pays other people to do everything.
Of course, yours is more showy his is more practical.
Yes my car is more showy, it has more bling after all :thumb

As for practical, I think mine is more practical too. I mean a water cooled car is always going to be more practical than an aircooled car :P

Brownies car is obviously built for cruising the beach and fishing. I am sure it does this very well, and for fishing it would be more practical. Brownies car has a full array of fishing arsenal like an esky rack and fishing rod holder / roof rack.

Sandy, $2.63 and MikeM have all been offroad in my car, so they know how it goes.
