Looking for inspiration? Write-offs re-defined.


For chrissakes take a look at the current monthly photos of the Metwiz ( http://www.metwiz.com  )- BTW can someone tell me the technique to make these refs such that you can click on them & go straight there.
This guy may be part crazy but he is re-defining what a write-off kombi is!
You'll see the removal of a complete floor including longitudinal members, transverse bearers & all the conduits etc & replaced with a donor floor.
Hey, I may be able to actually replace that concrete floor on my '58 van! Jeez I had better make sure all my anatomical bits are out of the way because it will probably register on the Richter scale when I cut it off & it hits the ground!!

Kelly Brown - Metwiz

Kelly also makes *decent* repro belly pans for sunroof and double door splitbusses....not many can do it!

George just 'click' on the little 'insert hyperlink' check box - its in the formatting mode....look above where you type in text when you send a message..

the easy way is just type the address in but make sure its the full address with http:// at the front. Hope this works http://www.stuff.morestuff.  The forum automatically makes it a link.

The other way is to click the button with a blue ball when typing your message. Its up with all the other formatting buttons. (its a a globe but the green bits are hard to see). stuff

thirdly you can type url in between square brackets at the start of your link and /url at the end. [*url] http://www.stuff.morestuff[*/url]  without the asterixes. [*url=http://www.stuff.morestuff]stuff[*/url] leaves only the word stuff as the link.

I just use the first easy way.

Not more than about half a cubic metre!


It's at least 50 maybe 75mm deep. The cargo area is about 2x3metres so that's up to 0.45 metres cubed acc to my arithmetic. Maybe that's why the 36hp was replaced with a fire breathing 40 hp!The hilux has towed several splits on a trailer. This one called for a change down in gears several times!
