JVL, i know what you mean, some wider rear gaurds and rims would go well, its on the to do list
need to get the back dropped a tiny bit
but getting it down about 1.5" is going to be a mission

I think I've reached a happy medium.
stock running boards and taillights have stayed, brazillian mirrors and blacked out trim
Black just seems to contrast better to white than chrome
well atleast i think so
someone has now dubbed it barbie bug cos I'm apperently playing dress up with it

This is really starting to shit me.
The second one I've hit this year
the other was in the mainstreamer and managed to smash my headlight and blinker.
But the Bug faired up abit better than the jap scrap
bumper took the impact, luckily its a german one so all thats happened is my 3 week old impact rubber on the side has entered orbit somewhere and i
have some nice marsupial intestinal splatter up the side and a few scratches which should polish out
I came around the bend about 90km/h and the wallaby was just standing there dumbfoundered as to which direction to head.
the 4 wheel disc brakes did their thing well on a wet road and slowed me down but i still hit it doing about 40km/h
I swear it must have been hitlers bug or something
only car I've ever known to unintentionally hit
2 crows
1 possum
1 goose
and several bunnys

bonnet and put both gaurds out (the right one more than the left) Also your bug is looking realy good , love the new look.

Sorry I haven't answered your texts or been on MSN, to say I have alot on my plate at the moment would have to be the understatement of the year
You probabaly saw the tornado that slaughtered Lennox Head this morn, I didn't cop that luckily but the winds from it and flooding have done some
damage here
265mm was in my raingauge from overnight
I spent the morning without power, there were trees down everywhere.
Dad tried to drive out here to help but all the roads were cut by floods
We got some small hail this morn and shitloads of wind and rain but I got off lucky, house is still in one piece.
There's so many homes demolished all through Lennox
it's more the entire crop washed away, the shed now full of 2" deep sludge and the mess that both farms are in Ive gotta deal with that sux

was....
I'll have a better look tomorrow once the waters gone down fully but unfortunately this farm has a creek through the middle of it and both side slope
down towards it so that much water has carried them all away.
Ive lost about 15 tonnes
All the neighbouring farms are in the situation though

count me in if i didn't have exams and 3 inanimate garden ornaments in the front yard. Sorry to hear bruz, I was tripping alone just hearing about
the tornado on the news this morning. particularly when Lennox is one of my fav spots, macadamias me fav nut. The agricultural industry is a hard job,
paritcularly with mother nature against ya. My grandfather was happy to retire from teh banana plantation at coffs.
Hope things get back on track asap.

shovels?
i think an excavator is called for.....
clusters like this all along the creek
along the western boundary all my nuts have gone under the fence into the neighbours place
but there's 5 other maca farms that share my Eastern and southern boundry and they lost theirs onto my place
I gotta be carefull walking on the debris thats scattered everywhere, I went to step on stick that moved, was actually a red belly black snake.
